In my opinion, if we're honest, most photographers are control freaks and anyone who says otherwise is either telling porkies or doesn't care about the work. In the days of shooting on film I had a good relationship with the printer at my lab and he knew how I liked my completed images to look. With the advent of digital one of the things that's been most welcome is having complete control over an image from start to finish. It's certainly changed the way I work, how I approach a project and most of all the look of my photography. I've found it easier to visualise how an image is going to look when it's completed yet I like the surprises that post production can bring.
You can see it, as I will, on the big screen at the ICA starting at the end of this month. It will be released on DVD on 23rd August.
