When commissioned to photograph people for Annual Reports I try and create 'think ahead' images – shooting in careful anticipation of how something could be given a particular treatment in layout by the designer/client.
This means maintaining an awareness of the graphic potential of picture elements – strong shapes, lines and contrasts – as well as allowing plenty of space to facilitate text overlays and flexible cropping.

A reminder: my much improved and fully responsive website: www.liambailey.com. has been structured with the needs of designers and creative directors in mind. Features include a new Portfolio section, the option to download PDFs, and access to lo-res versions (for approved users) of all site images for use in working up concepts.
