Our Week In Video | Video Production | Digital Media & Filmmaking

Rich and I had a blast with one of our photographer friends, Aga Tomaszek as she talks all about her career and how Video is a major influence with her photography.   Rich has known Aga for quite a few years now, they get on vey well and often refer each other as they appreciate each others work and they get on like a house on fire. So with Aga being one of the leading photographers in the UK, we wanted to ask her, as there seems to be a trend with Photographers offering video, if she is looking into this as a viable business decision. We also explore the pro’s and con’s of switching fully from Nikon to Sony cameras.   Here is her website, check it out http://www.agatomaszek.com   Checkout our new website www.ourweekinvideo.com Social: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ourweekinvideo/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ourweekinvideo/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ourweekinvideo Or send us an email at hello@owiv.me   We are also proudly sponsored by Mediazilla - Deliver an experience, not just a video.
