ABOUT
“It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter because you can invent things. But in photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the extraordinary. ”
David Bailey
“You might say every one of us is a fiddler on the roof. Trying to scratch out a pleasant, simple tune without breaking his neck.” “Fiddler on the Roof”
I love both of those quotes and they both represent what the Image Conjurer blog is about. My attempts at creating art and making a living as a photographer.
I am Bernie Greene and I am a portrait and commercial photographer based in Sussex, England.
This site is for clients, possible clients and anyone else who is interested in my work. From this site you can contact me, see my work and find out a bit about me from my blog writings.
My blog is about my work and those I create the work for and not particularly about gear.
I’m not interested in topics such as Canon vs Nikon or PC vs Mac. They may be good for starting a fight but they are pretty much irrelevant to me. I’m more interested in questions like “What is Art?” and “how can I make a living in this crazy world?”
I ponder and pontificate upon the issues I face as a photographer trying to eke out a tune and still pay the bills.
