Print Mailer: Pulling for you

The team here at Wonderful Machine is always working to help get you where you want to be. Whether we’re matching clients up with photographers, revamping a photographer’s brand, or orchestrating a production, you can be sure that we’re pulling for you. That’s why, for our August print mailer, we paired that tagline up with Madison, Wisconsin-based photographer Narayan Mahon‘s fantastic shot from the Tug of War World Championships (yes, that’s a thing). Check out the final mailer (printed by Modern Postcard) below:

Narayan was kind enough to tell us a little bit more about the fun image: 

So, this was shot on assignment for ESPN the Magazine. I pitched them this story about the Tug of War World Championships when I drove by the park in which it was taking place. I saw it and thought, ‘what the hell is that?!’ I had just started working with a new camera system, a Pentax 645D digital medium format, and I was looking for something like this to do as test for that camera, So I did a quick search about it and then immediately called an editor at ESPN the Magazine that I work with regularly and said, ‘hey, this is happening Saturday and Sunday (it was Friday!).’ He said, ‘yeah, let’s do it!’ So I went out there with a Profoto Ringflash and shot it, some of which was in the rain. It was a good time!
