Looking Through The Lens Article with Adam Jacobs

I recently had this very nice article written on me and my photographic journey after being chosen to judge a photography competition in the lead up to the Rugby World Cup to be held in England later this year. Here's the first paragraph: 

"As our journey towards Rugby World Cup continues, we meet an individual who has applied a fearless attitude to life. Instead of standing on the turf and accepting the challenge of the fearsome Haka, packing down in the front row ahead of a scrum engagement or tackling the flying winger as he breaks away to score a seemingly certain try; Adam Jacobs showed his determination to succeed in very different circumstances."

Speaking at Clifford Chance To Launch Photography Competition

I recently spoke at Clifford Chance to launch a photography competition open to all of their employees in anticipation of the Rugby World Cup later this year. The firm are the official legal supplier of the tournament and are therefore actively encouraging all of their staff through various channels to engage in the lead up to the event. Each employee has been provided with a mini rugby ball and asked to use their creativity to go out and take photographs of their ball in interesting and unusual places. 

My job was to launch the competition by inspiring people through my story and portfolio whilst sharing a few tips on how to make better pictures. I will then be judging all entries in the coming months with winners receiving a host of prizes from Rugby World Cup merchandise to Canon cameras and the eventual winning image, receiving tickets to the Rugby World Cup Final at Twickenham.
