Hello all,
Please allow me to introduce myself as I've just discovered this forum as potentially being very helpful in finding the right person for a photography essay that I am planning.
My name is Leon Neal and I'm a staff editorial photographer for Getty Images, based in London. As a member of the photo team, we're expected to find interesting essays and features that may make strong image packages for our clients. I've been pondering the idea of working on something related to pilgrimages for a while but had been looking at longer routes in Europe. However, having read about St Thomas' Way and seen a number of interesting reports and blog posts on events such as the LMS walking pilgrimage, I'm now thinking that it would be great to focus on a UK route.
While I'm not looking for someone to be dressed as a medieval saint, I also am looking for someone who may be attempting something a little different to a traditional hike. Steven Payne's 14th century pilgrimage in 2015 would have been fascinating to document! Do any readers here know of any planned pilgrimages by anyone which could fit this description?
Many thanks for any help that anyone can offer. I'm well aware that I'm appearing out of the blue and asking for help but I know from experience that the forums are where you'll often find the most knowledge on any subject!
Cheers,
Leon
