I had an absolute ball yesterday photographing The Norfolk BrOARds on the beach at Wells next the Sea. It was pretty chilly, but we were blessed with some lovely bright weather and we made the most of it. Oh, and when it got a bit too much, one of the girls had a hipflask of rum to help us along!
Anyway, just to backtrack for a minute. Who are the Norfolk BrOARDs? Well, The Norfolk BrOARds are Kristi, Kate and Sandra – a group of crazy Norfolk women who will be rowing the Atlantic (yes, the actual ocean!) at the end of 2021, in aid of a number of charities, as part of the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge. They reckon it’s going to take them around 45 days!!
So, amongst many other things (good stomachs, a sense of adventure, fortitude, a huge amount of training, and rum) they need publicity and sponsorship as they have to raise a LOT of money! Hence, they need some great publicity photographs to help them achieve that.
