Jim Naughtie
Author: Louise Haywood-Schiefer
In this months Total Politics magazine you will find an image I took of BBC Radio 4 broadcaster James ‘Jim’ Naughtie.
The shoot was quite a rushed one and I was having to photograph him whilst he was being interviewed but I found him to be very agreeable and accommodating to those moments where I had to ask for his attention.
Fortunately The Ivy Club allowed us to use their roof terrace for the location and with the flattering late afternoon light it actually became quite a tranquil environment enhanced by his softly spoken Scottish tones.
I think these are great. They really give me the feeling that I was there with you and finally met the man I’ve listened to so many times in the mornings.
Thanks Finn, he has such a therapeutic voice doesn’t he.
It felt like quite an intimate shoot actually as we were left to our own devices.
Thanks for the kind comment!
