Photographer - Filmmaker, Somerset England
Simon Plant
Riding and customising Italian Vespa & Lambretta scooters in the mid-1980s that's how in a weird set of events I became obsessed with and decided upon becoming a commercial photographer some 30 plus years ago.
Over the years I think it's fair to say I've photographed most things from celebs to door knockers.
My big breakthrough came shooting men's lifestyle images with Clarks Shoes followed by several years capturing cars and other projects and campaigns.
Constantly keeping up with new imaging technologies and pushing new techniques of my own, I found myself to be one of the very first photographers shooting HDR imaging for the CGI rendering of automotives in the U.K
I'm told on very good authority (well the wife) that I'll talk to anyone but I'm just interested in people. The simple fact is I feel comfortable chatting and photographing anyone from the 6'2 model, the CEO of Shell in his London HQ, or the rustic-looking fella stripping willow bark in the backwaters of the Somerset countryside they all intrigue me.
So it's no surprise really that today I have come full circle back to capturing people and places.
The only change is I now capture them in motion and occasionally from the air too.
I'm also back riding my 50-year-old Lambretta pretending I'm 17 again when time and the wife allows of course !
