Dear SASers, my company is taking part in this years Mongol Rally, attempting to drive a rediculous amount of miles in a couple of very small cars (Punto's)
I'm after a photographer to take some shots of the cars, all liveried up, at our offices in Chertsey before they depart.
The event is in aid of charity so I am after someone (and you know who you are) to offer their services for free or at least very cheaply.
I will gladly treat the volunteer to a slap up lunch in return for their efforts.
So... date 23rd July, midday, Chertsey, Surrey.

Details of the rally here: http://mongolrally.theadventurists.com/

p.s. Would be a nice addition to any budding photographers portfolio wink

Good morning sir wavey

Chertsey's only down the road from me so I can pop along. I'm only a keen amateur, mind, but happy to help smile

I'm just down the road in G'ford but typically, I'm away that weekend or else I'd have come and taken a few for you as it's for a good cause!

I did the rally last year. It was great fun. Enjoy it!

Can't help with pics unless you want something rubbish.

If you cover my fuel costs (not much from Essex) & I can make it I'll gladly help out - can't beat a free lunch! smile

I cannot guarantee my time though (other work commitments may crop up) so if you get someone else who can definately make, feel free to go with them.

cheers,
Steve

Thank you everybody who has offered their help.
Trackdemon, your portfolio is quite exceptional.. you have a real talent there but as you can't commit 100%, I'll ask one of the others that have offered.
Ben, Avril, you are more than welcome to come along on the day if you'd like and I'll be happy to buy you some refreshments in return.
Nick, thank you for your offer. I know how talented you are with the old box brownie so that's too good an offer to pass up.
I'll PM you with the details.
Thanks again one and all.

Cool smile I'll make sure I'm working from home that day and block the hours out. How long do you expect everyone to be parked up in Chertsey?

'scuse me... but you're going to see Pendulum and The Prodigy at MK rather than 'Out Of Order' at the Bramshill Hunt? Shame on you. frown
