My main focus when shooting for clients is always to make sure they're happy with how their work is being represented, how their creativity is being captured. As a result of this, I often overlook the life that the finished images have once they've been delivered, where they finally end up, where they're seen by the wider public.
In our modern digital world this is obviously predominantly on-line and social media but what's weirdly so satisfying, often so much more rewarding, is when the images appear in print and are published in the much more traditional sense.
This can take the form of an entire publication filled with my photographs or a tiny single thumbnail in the corner of a page. It could be in a well known international magazine or a low volume catalogue for a small local gallery but the thrill is exactly the same no matter what.
I know these examples are still transient, in the scheme of things still fleeting, having only marginally more permanence than an online post but their physical reproduction pleases me immensely.
