During Summer 2013, I had the most wonderful opportunity to go to Greece for over a month and work as a Sport & Portrait photographer. Having just finished University a few weeks before this was absolutely incredible and I couldn’t wait. I didn’t know what to expect, I had been away from home before but not 100’s of miles away and had no idea what it was going to be like.
It was absolutely incredible. There was a mile hill walk every day and the digs and the food weren’t interesting, but I was in a dream location doing my dream job. Who could complain? Every day I would do something different, from photographing both children and adults waterskiing, to them playing tennis, windsurfing, sailing and much more. I also worked with the kids clubs to photograph the children whilst they were away from their parents, providing them with photographs of what the kids had been up to over the previous week. It was hard work and the hours were long, but the photographs and experience I got out of it was incredible.
Part One of this is showing some of the sport photography I did whilst in Sivota. Please check out Clare EdmeadsPhotography if you want to know any more about positions working in Greece for the summer.
