Hi all, I have just joined this forum, and thought i would like to offer my services to collaborate with any journalists who would need pictures or video to accompany there work.

I have, with a colleague just launched an agency called (storypictureagency.com) and we are still in our infancy.

As for my background, I worked at AFP and EPA for five years, and at smaller agencies in Scotland and England for five years prior to that.

Though I create my own story and pictures, I am at the end of the day not a journalist (as I am sure you can see by my spelling). Complacently being at big wire services have lost some of the ability to cultivate stories outside of the main stream press.

It would be great to chat or get to know some of you and if you ever in the market for a photographer then please look me up.

Thanks for spending the time reading this and hope to hear from some of you soon,

Cheers,

Andrew Cowie
