Films that show photographers at work. . .

[Stephen Pruitt]

I could use some recommedations:

Our next feature film deals with a photographer and so I'm looking for narrative films that show photographers at work, specifically in how they move from what the photographer sees through his lens before he clicks the shutter to the resulting image in the next frame or so.

Any suggestions on where to go to look for examples of this sort of thing?

Thanks.

Year of the Gun is the only one I can think of. Also, Blow Up, although that is a brilliant film regardless. If you haven't seen it, you must. Thank me later!

"War photographer" from Christian Frei a Swiss director. An incredible documentary film you should see.

Documentary is allways a good starting point for inspiration on narrative work
