How crazy is celebrity photography? How did the agency photography industry develop?

In order to take photos of celebrities, photographers can go to the mountains and sea, and even squat in hotels to watch celebrities. The agency photography industry developed under the instigation of fans, because most fans want to see first-hand information about their idols. Therefore, many fans will buy videos and pictures from these proxy photographers, using this method to enhance their understanding of their idols. Of course, if there are profits to be made, proxy shooting will develop better and better, so now the momentum of this industry is getting stronger and stronger.

But in fact, there are very big hidden dangers behind this behavior, the first of which is safety risks. Because many studios will be quarantined in advance when filming, and strangers are not allowed to enter the studio for filming. In such a situation, the agent may randomly hide in some relatively secret places. If you are filming a costume drama, there may be rockeries nearby, and some agents will hide in these rockeries in advance. Some proxy photographers will even climb up a tree and hide in order to get a better perspective.

If they accidentally fall off, a serious accident may occur, which will also have a very bad impact on the entire crew. Some crews also filmed near the water, and the filming agents even went into the water to shoot. If the filming crew was accidentally swept away by the water, it would be a serious accident. If the studio is shooting a night scene, the agent may need to slowly explore in the dark. Such behavior is also very dangerous.

This series of behaviors are particularly dangerous, but the photographers are willing to do it because they know that they can sell them at a good price after taking the photos. Some big photographers will sell the photos to fans after taking them, and a set of clothes may be sold for hundreds of dollars. If the pictures are being taken by the crew and have not been published, they will even be sold for a higher price. Under the inducement of profit, the agency photography industry has become stronger and stronger, and this has become a behavior that has been repeatedly banned.
