The number of medico-legal cases sent to me for photography seems to be rising, I guess people's minds are more litigious these days, but it is essential that the pictures are really properly done and usable. This applies to all personal injury or accident claims cases.
Two cases recently were referred to me as the 'victims' had had medical photographs done by a non-specialist and in both cases the photographs were rejected as being unrepresentative or inaccurate. Well there's a not-too-surprising lesson: if you want decent wedding photographs, go to a professional wedding photographer; if you want decent medical or medico-legal photographs, come to me or (I guess I have to say this!) another properly qualified and experienced medical professional. Only if your pictures can be certified as an accurate record by a qualified and registered (or registerable) medical photographer will they carry professional weight and veracity.
