Photo by Gretchen Peters

Join us for an evening with John Moore as he presents his 20 years of experience as a photojournalist. John has worked for 14 years with the Associated press and is currently a senior staff photographer at Getty Images.

John was recently based in Islamabad, Pakistan, where he lived with his family for more than 3 years. After graduating from the University of Texas at Austin in late 1990, Moore began his international career with the Associated Press. During almost 14 years with the AP, he was based in Nicaragua, India, South Africa, Mexico and Egypt, and photographed in more than 80 countries on five continents. Since the attacks of September 11, 2001, Moore has extensively covered the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, covering the US and British military in some of the world’s most dangerous combat zones.

Since joining Getty Images in 2005, Moore has worked throughout South Asia, Africa and the Middle East, covering the Israel-Lebanon conflict of 2006. In 2007 he was on assignment three times in Iraq, once in Afghanistan and spent much of the rest of the year covering Pakistan’s slide into instability, culminating in the assassination of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.

Moore was named 2008 "Magazine Photographer of the Year" from Pictures of the Year International (POYi) and was awarded "Photojournalist of the Year" from the National Press Photographers Association (NPPA). Moore has also won photography awards from the Overseas Press Club, The Society of Professional Journalists, and World Press. He was also on a team that won the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for Breaking News Photography for their coverage of the war in Iraq.

The Business of Architectual Photography - Aug. 19


Architectural Photography:
"It's an art form but it's also a business"

The business of Architectural Photography is another aspect that constantly requires attention. From estimating, licensing issues, scouting assignments, creating that shoot list, all are important factors. Once the client signs that contract and pays the 50% retainer, project coordination comes into play. That includes security clearances, site preparation, transportation arrangements, permits, releases and authorization. All of these areas need to be conveyed to the client. This event covers all of that and more.

Steve Whittaker is an architectural photographer based on the San Francisco peninsula. The majority of his work is architectural, interior and aerial photography. His specialty is lighting buildings at dusk. His clients range from architects, advertising agencies, corporate direct and hospitality.

Steve's clients include architects, interior designers, advertising agencies, graphic designers, construction, REITs, hospitality and corporate direct clients. His assignments cover everything from aerials, some life style, and interior spaces to illuminating the exterior surfaces and interior space of buildings for dramatic dusk images.

Topics covered:

  • Estimating /Contracts / Stock issues
  • Permits/release forms/film commissions
  • Risk Management /Safety issues
