John Woracker

1958, Near Upminster, Essex, England

I have been taking photographs for most of my life and turned professional in the sense of charging for my work.

My photography background comes from using a 35 mm film camera to record life around me and regularly provide pictures for family and friends.

The last ten years have seen me move from film to digital cameras after being able to present photographic images on the internet, leading to regular commissions and sales of my work.

Experience

Background and Training up and until – Jun 2017

Well, an apprenticeship of around four years working on the commercial market and producing photographs to a specification. Before this , I studied for a Fine Arts degree, worked for a magazine, and worked with not-for-profit  organisations.

Add to this would be a whole list of family and friends life photography events; babies; children; weddings, parties and other lifestyle activities.

Commission and contract work – Sep 2017 to Covid

There are too many weddings, parties and life events to remember all of them or even attempt to list them here.

Regular and repeating commercial commissions from national businesses, car manufacturers and charity organisations, not forgetting estate agents and insurance companies.
