Photography
A&E Network recently asked People of Resource to come to South Carolina to provide production stills and portraiture for its new reality series, I’m Heavy. Our first round of shooting was completed this month and we’ll be heading up to the set to produce more photography as the show progresses.
We have to say, what we witnessed was both humbling and inspiring.
From A&E: “I’m Heavy is an intimate look at the remarkable journeys of individuals whose daily struggle with their weight has overtaken their lives. Viewers will get unprecedented access into the lives of participants – who come from all walks of life but share the inability to manage their escalating weight – as they go through a six month program. The process will begin with an intensive in-patient treatment and therapy program where participants will learn the knowledge and techniques necessary to inspire dramatic results and we’ll continue to follow them as they transition back to their daily lives. Two individual transformations will be told in each episode, from the points of view of both individuals, and their friends and family affected. Will these overweight individuals be able to overcome behavioral problems and food addictions to achieve true life change?”
The show is slated to premiere in 2011.
