John Woodward has spent 35 years producing images for worldwide corporations, professional sports teams and events, musical superstars, political heads and more. As a corporate events specialist he finds that everyday presents a new challenge. Some days he’s shooting the interior of a corporate boardroom, portraits of the officers and then documenting a charity dinner.
