Last Thursday I did a PR job for the new Women's Equality Party at an event they were holding in Central London. Afterwards, we made some quick portraits. L-R this is party leader, Sophie Walker, and founders Sandi Toksvig and Catherine Meyer. Earlier this year, Sandi Toksvig quit her job as host of BBC Radio 4's The News Quiz in order to help set up the party, which is campaigning for equal representation of women and plans to field candidates in the 2020 general election.
I had sufficient room at the venue to gaffer tape up a background paper and use a 500w flash with a big Elinchrom octabox to make this shot. What I hadn’t banked on was the massive difference in height between my subjects!
