Poorna Market
Andhra Pradesh
The old market quarter: dense, commercial and busy from very early. The colour and the activity are already there and need no arranging, which makes it strong documentary ground and a poor place to attempt anything that requires people to stand still or a background to stay the same for two consecutive frames.

What we photograph here
Documentary and editorial sessions, commercial photography for businesses in the market, and product work for traders here.
Planning around the place
Early morning is the only genuinely unhurried window, and it closes sooner than people expect. We keep the crew small, work handheld with one body rather than setting up, and stay out of the way of people who are trying to trade - a tripod in a market aisle is an obstruction before it is a tool.
