Andrew Heatherington interviews Chris Floyd

And we are the lucky folks that get to read this interview. It is a passionate view of a photographer who is dedicated to making images that matter in a business environment that doesn't care. Read it all, every word. I is so compelling that I have read it three times now.

I gotta thank Andrew for getting this in print - man that's a lot of typing - because it is invaluable. We are facing challenging times as photographers of every stripe. Knowing what we are up against is most important. Thanks Chris for the incredibly frank words. Great pics too, BTW...

whats the jackanory ?: "AH: No worries man, you are obviously passionate about your art, you have referred to yourself as a journeyman. I liked that, care to elaborate ?

CF: Sure. I take a great deal of pride in the fact that you can send me anywhere and I will bring you something that is a) compelling and b) will tell you something vital about the subject. I can find something to be curious about in pretty much anyone. It's like that line 'How can you justify your fees ?' It only took you 20 minutes to do it!' - 'Yes it did but it took me 20 years to learn how to do it in 20 minutes.'"
