Photographer Hannah Houston followed PAN on Twitter, I spotted her great portrait work so followed her back and got in touch. Turns out she worked as a photo editor for ten years returning to her first passion of photography in 2008.
She sent me this update:
‘Hi Will, Thanks to you for the twitter follow! I’ve come from a photo archive background so love to keep up to date with all the news you supply. ‘
Hannah at the agencies:
• Photographic Archivist for Mirrorpix 2005-2007
• Picture Editor AOL UK – 2007-2008
Freelance Picture Editor/Picture Researcher/Photo Librarian from 2008 onwards for:
• Scotland on Sunday
• Edinburgh International Film Festival
• PacificCoastNews
• Historic Scotland
‘Now I focus primarily on portraiture both social and commercial. I love the process of talking to my clients, building rapport and sussing out their individual requirements before even lifting the camera. The enjoyment for me is in the process and I hope the end photographs reflect this. I’m based in Edinburgh but work throughout Scotland and willing to travel for the right commission. I have studio set-up and use this on location regularly, doing a lot of work with small-medium sized companies creating online content for the websites.’
