Iain Crockart is not only a great stills photographer, but fantastic at moving image as well.
Whilst on a recent shoot commissioned by SAS for Ernst & Young, Iain had the great idea of putting together a fun little stop frame animation. The results speak for themselves and Ernst & Young used the video to promote their graduate programme, Games Room.
LPA photographer Iain Crockart has recently been working on a great new personal project, documenting the beautiful flowers and plants from his very own garden.
Iain’s graphic and bold style of photography show off these flowers at their absolute best and remind us all of the colour and vibrancy to come when Spring finally arrives. In addition to great photography, we’re all very impressed by Iain’s green fingers!

LPA Photographer, Iain Crockart recently uploaded his epic Himalayan motorcycle adventure to Vimeo and it’s now received over 70,000 hits.
Shot on a Go Pro, you get a real sense of some of the nail biting moments Iain and the team faced as they climbed their way through the mountains up to the highest road in the world (18,340 ft).
Iain said, ‘the Himalayas are not for the faint-hearted, the mountains sheer magnitude is a test in itself, add to that the high altitudes, unpredictable weather, the risk of landslides, sheer drops, roads that are mud, water and sand, sudden border closures and route changes and you realise why this is one of the most challenging motorbike adventures on the planet.’

We all thought Toby Coulson‘s creepy bald Sphynx cats were the oddest thing to grace the LPA blog; that was until our photographer Iain Crockart went to The British Beard and Moustache Championship in Brighton last weekend.
More than just a spot of designer stubble or ironic moustache, these mammoth facial hair coverings are a work of art in themselves, often sculpted into gravity-defying positions! The event held in Brighton was incredibly popular, attracting hundreds of facial fuzz fans and curious passers-by.
Iain captured the best of what was on show in a series of captivating portraits from which we’ve picked our personal favourites.

It’s official, Lisa Pritchard Agency is 10 years old this year!
Established in 2002, LPA quickly grew to become one of the UK’s leading photographers agents and shoot producers and, we are proud to say, maintains it’s stronghold as the most innovative, professional and helpful agent in town!
So do excuse us while we blow our own trumpet a little …
Over the last decade we’ve worked with some amazing clients, photographers and crew, tackled some of the most challenging briefs (and budgets!) and organised thousands of seamless photoshoots of all shapes and sizes.
Starting out with just a handful of photographers, several of which are still with us today ( Iain Crockart, Michael Heffernan and Nick Daly) the agency has expanded over the years to incorporate some exciting divisions, including LPA Futures, LPA Style and LPA Production.
Energy, experience and efficiency, that’s what we’re known for. Aside from that we can lay claim to some very worthwhile initiatives. We support and spearhead up and coming talent with LPA Futures and the LPA Student Challenges, Lisa has written a bestselling book ”Setting Up a Successful Photography Business”, earned a reputation as an engaging guest speaker and established the very popular Ask an Agent column. But last, and certainly not least, we wouldn’t be where we are today if it wasn’t for the A team of staff that we have managed to maintain over the years. Jenny and Kyle in the early days ; then Holly, Alex, Luke and Bridget helped take LPA to the next level and the current creme de la creme – production supremos Dani and Lauren, marketing whizz Alexa, newest member and fab agency assistant Tom and of course the magnificent ‘accounts department’ Georgina who has been with us from the start.
And so, lets raise a toast to 10 years of LPA and commemorate with 10 anniversary images. An image for each year, each one will depict the traditional wedding anniversary material or gift for that year. Apparently as the years go on the gifts become more precious and durable – just like LPA! Also, just like a successful marriage, we know it takes a lot of hard graft and team work to keep doing what we do so well!
First up for year one is an image by Sam Stowell and the gift of paper! We’ll bring you more anniversary gifts each week so watch this space…
