About MH Media and Online

Picture © Lizzie Garner 2007 Welcome to MH Media and Online. I'm Peter Garner, a freelance photo-journalist mainly specialising in music/clubbing events and street photography although I'll turn my hand to almost anything. I've had 20 years experience of taking pictures of all kinds of subjects in the UK, Europe and America. When necessary I complement my images with commentary that rarely pulls punches and is both concise and to the point. I'm a member of the NUJ and hold a verifiable press pass. I make full use of technology and am able to file copy from almost anywhere often using non-traditional methods.

commentary

Map showing recent visitor activity Although a picture can be worth a thousand words, there are times when an image has to be backed up by relevant text. In addition to writing full-length articles, my mobile reporting system has taught me to write concisely in order to be effective on a mobile platform. I have written and maintained my blog, "Life From the Front Line" since 2003 and today have a regular international readership. In addition to human readers, it also includes a large number of aggregators that gather blog content for knowledge systems.

London demo Originally written from the outset to be maintained from and read on a cell phone, the blog has been continually developed from a text-only system and now include images and video. Recently an interface to Google Maps™ and Google Earth™ was added enabling the entry of GPS coordinates into a blog posting to pinpoint my location.

Thus, armed with nothing more than a simple cell phone + optional GPS it is now possible to report live from anywhere there is a GSM network. At the time of writing, an entry can be posted on the web within minutes of pressing "Send".

Lights! Camera! Action!!

commercial advert montage image I've recently moved into the world of video and have completed my first assignment in a TV commercial for a major international company. I can now offer my services as an extra/background artist, or as a Production Photographer. You can contact me via this web site, or visit my profile at StarNow.

"What a great gig that was!"

Music events are my speciality and I like to promote both myself and the artist whenever possible.
 
I believe that however good a performer is, unless they're backed up by good publicity, especially images, then they're at a disadvantage. If I can help then I will. I'm very much into the whole clubbing/music scene and you should check out my profile/galleries at HarderFaster.net. If you're a fan, then please spread the word and get friends to visit my web site. If you're a promoter or PR person then please get in touch to see how we can help each other.

"That Looks Interesting"

Potsdamerplatz I photograph subjects from many different angles and view them with a non-standard perspective. Many of my buildings soar skywards, or change colour to suit the mood of the moment. I find an interesting aspect or view of a building and use it to full advantage..

If you have a particular photographic requirement in this respect, get in touch now!

"Have camera, will travel"

As a regular mainland European traveller I not only photograph the regular tourist haunts but also get to know my chosen area a little better as well. The result is a more in-depth report which may help to give a better insight into social and economic factors.

Where I'm Seen

Seen all over  
I'm a regular contributor for the premier UK clubbing site HarderFast.net which covers the harder styles of dance music. I have also contributed both images and reviews for One Week To Live magazine. Three of my images have been featured as "image of the day" on the Guardian Unlimited Arts Blog. Links to my Eastern Europe images are featured in Kerry Kubilius' Eastern Europe For Visitors column on About.com. I have a large gallery on the Prague TV web site and the images are due to be used by several Czech tourism sites.

Pug1Off.com My work is also featured heavily on the Pug1Off.com web site. Pug1Off specialise in Peugeots and Citroens including engine conversions, body styling and much more. Please check them out!

Ethos

Demo, New York 1982   Dying for a coffee
For me, photography is not just about taking "a picture": it's capturing that moment in a fraction of a second, along with the emotion of the moment, and saving it for posterity. I want to be able to communicate the mood of the scene I'm photographing - an image should be self-explanatory. I always carry a camera of some description and never miss an opportunity.
