In 2006, Phil Tragen contacted the Stockport Express to request work experience with the photography team. They allowed him to follow them around for a week, but a month later, he was still there.
His clients like him because he is creative, versatile, and exacting about results. He would say that good photography ought to transform ordinary things into extraordinary pictures. He would then apologise for attempting to sound intellectual.
Phil Tragen clients include several major national and regional papers including the Manchester Evening News and The Times. He also works for the NHS, Rocco Forte Hotels, The Christie, Cancer Research UK, Wirral Council, and a number of prominent regional PR companies.
