Decent Photographer Needed For Small Job (Zero Pay)

[eugegall]

Hi Guys.

As most of you know we are doing a skydive for charity on 10th September at Hinton Airfield near Oxford.

Could someone please volunteer to come along for the afternoon to take some decent quality pictures so that we can all remember this awesome experience?

There might even be dinner in it for you afterwards.

Thanks all.

Euge

If you get REALLY desperate I may be free but I'm lacking in adaquate gear and talent I think

I know that this one is for charity and CS etc... but this page is still an interesting read in regards to the title.

I will have my gear with me so can let someone else use it until I hit the floor...and TBH I'm hoping to go first so I can get it out the way lol. Sadly though I do not own a 900mm lens so most pictures will be of people a LOT closer to the ground.

 

[StephenJ]

TBH I may pop across anyway purely for the laugh

If I'm around on that date then I may be able to pop along

I was going to PM you but i didn't know how long you'd be away for. Would be great if you could come along. When will you know?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

I'll find out now, hang on.....

I'm in London on the Thursday and Friday, but free on that Saturday

[eugegall]

Brilliant news. So is that confirmed? You'll be there as our chief photographer?

 

[eugegall]

Stephen please do also come along.. You're very welcome.

Yeh sure thing.

You want me to jump out the plane too and do some snaps?

 

[eugegall]

LOL I wouldn't want to put you through that. You just stay on the ground and catch our faces as we approach the ground. Really happy now..... Thank you

 

[Sym0n]

Yes, although they won't let me jump out with my GoPro so you might struggle to sneak a DSLR past them lol.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

You might as well ask some other chaps to turn up for photos too, the more the merrier and all that

I'll try to photograph as much of the action as I can, especially the landing and initial nervous faces!

 

[Sym0n]

Don't forget the puking following the landing.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Oh yeh I'll get all that

Is this a definite thing, or is it weather dependant? What time does it start etc?

 

[Sym0n]

Sadly weather dependant but it's all booked and ready to go. Time wise, I've no idea, got 11am in my head but not too sure. Euge will know fo' sho'.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Cool no worries. I'll check this thread prior to the event for updates.

 

[StephenJ]

Stephen please do also come along.. You're very welcome.

Cheers, tips from The Freeman have just sealed the deal I think.
