MySpace Layouts MySpace Layouts
My name's Danny Bourne, I'm an award winning, internationally published freelance journalist and photographer, and I have worked for many UK high street magazines, such as FHM, Loaded, Nuts, Zoo, Cosmopolitan, Fast Car, New Woman, More, Reveal, Full House, Real, Best and Forum. I have also been published in the US, Europe and Australia.
Currently, I'm assisting Roberto Aguilar at BedHead Studios in Battersea (British Hair Awards and Tigi's current international advertising campaigns).
I test for Storm, NEVS and Oxygen agencies, amongst others and you can see more of my work at www.dannybournephotography.co.uk. If you're more interested in my writing, then try www.dannybourne.com.
I additionally shoot syndication work for Celebrity Pictures (see www.celebritypictures.co.uk)
If you are a bar or band, please only add me to your contact list if you are interested in working with me rather than just to tout your latest guest night/single.
I also do portfolio work for some agencies, and professional portfolios - I come complete with make up artist, stylist, studio and tea monkey if needed. Please feel free to get in touch if you are interested in having shots done for your book or just to have hang on your wall. Rates vary depending on commission.
My main line of work is magazine/newspaper features - if you have anything that you think would be of interest to readers of whichever magazine, feel free to get in touch and I'll see if I can get you published. I have plenty of tearsheets.
I also work in TV documentaries in post productoin on programmes such as Britain's Next Top Model and Brainiac. And Robot Wars, which was all kind of fun. And People's Century.
There's plenty of stuff to have a nosey around chez Danny at www.dannybourne.com (although it's somewhat out of date) .
