Peter Beavis Photography
London
Peter continues to explore the facets of the human condition; this time concentrating on sport. He shoots the significant moment in time capturing the essence and purity. The first series 'Women's Rugby' was shot in Newcastle, UK on a cold, blustery day. Nobody was hurt during the filming, but there were a few bruises. The 'surfers' are all local Cornish talent, ranging from amateur to professional, but all with a common love of the waves.
"One feels incredibly in awe of their talent, beauty, and raw determination. Bodies that have been shaped by their gruelling schedules and chosen sport. Fine tuned athletes. It's an honour to spend time in their presence."
Peter is always looking for new talent to photograph so if anyone is interested, he can be contacted via email.
