Erin Benda: Anthem Media

Erin led me a merry dance as I tried to get a chance to shoot for Anthem! It took about six months of pestering and cajoling but it has definitely proven worth it. Many of the great assignments that they have had me cover have become cornerstones of my portfolio and they have allowed me a wonderful level of creative freedom and inciteful direction as I have captured work for multiple mastheads.

“After being wooed by Alistair’s svelte English accent and cheeky sense of humor, we decided try him out on an assignment and the photos were wonderful! He has a keen eye and a knack for capturing the true essence of the moment. Whether it’s a person, place or thing- his images always make the viewer feel like they’re right there, next to Alistair, as he’s taking the shot.”

“Alistair is one of the few photographers that I can trust to take an assignment and run with it, usually without an art director, and get amazing results. I’ve never gotten my proofs back from Alistair and thought "I wish he would’ve done [insert wish] instead…”

Jürgen Mantzke: Lore Magazine

Jürgen approached me to photograph for Lore Magazine in early 2007; he gave some incredible houses to capture and a wonderful assignment recording the Plaza with the Christmas lights ablaze. This relationship later developed into a great portrait shoot at the Topeka Capital with a lot of humor and personality.

“I’ve had a few occasions to work with Alistair and found his manner professional and progressive. He has been responsive, efficient, and creative. The results in our magazine have been splendid.”

Andrea Darr: Kansas City Homes & Gardens

Andrea and I have collaborated on developing the photography style of Kansas City Homes & Gardens; focusing far more on creating more emotion and life in the imagery. She’s an incredible talent and a joy to work with and I love the great houses she keeps finding for me.

“I’ve been working with Alistair for about ten months, and I’m continuously impressed with his work. He’s extremely professional, personable and someone who has an eye for image angles and lighting. He turns in great shots, and I always look forward to working with him.”

KC Magazine, KC Homes & Gardens, KC Business and 435 South Magazine

Editorialtastic! Well, we got in a bunch of magazines this week and I’m very happy with how that turned out; as you can tell from the title of the post we ended up in KC Magazine with a great set of shoots on downtown Kansas City, a wonderful house by the gorgeous Sandra Joyce for Kansas City Homes & Gardens (in their spanking redesigned magazine), a great article on a really cool pharmaceutical firm named Proteon in Kansas City Business and then finally a luxury three million dollar home in 435 South Magazine. Not bad!

Kansas City Country Club Plaza - Lore Magazine

I just got back from shooting the ever popular Kansas City Country Club Plaza in all it’s illuminated winter finery. It’s part of a spankingly new article on Kansas City by Lore Magazine - “Live’s in Real Estate”. If you haven’t seen the Plaza in the winter they absolutely smother it in light bulbs and it’s darn unique. Here’s an on-line version of the article.
