Monty Rakusen - Building Pictures

Monty Rakusen specialises in photographing Industry, Engineering, Science and Energy, creating unique brand-building images that really stand out. Monty works collaboratively with clients and syndicates his pictures through image libraries like Image Source and Getty. He has created a library of over 12,000 images of the absolute highest quality which are used in a variety of ways. Commercial  and industrial photogaphy has been a big part of my career and I’ve always looked up to Monty’s work which is so immaculate, technically spot-on but retains a warmth and personality that really connects to the viewer and humanises some big ideas. We talk about how Monty’s career has changed over the years, how he builds pictures, his editing workflow and much more.Sorry about the sound quality on this episode - particularly in the second half. There was a tech problem which I’ve done my best to clean this up but please stick with it and you’ll hear the thoughts of a hugely experienced photographer who’s just the best at what he does.
