Apple Co-Founder Steve Wozniak appears at Apps World event in Earls Court, London.

Steve Wozniak appears at the event to talk to audiences about his illustrious career in technology.

I was asked by event organisers to photograph Steve backstage before his talk.  I opted for a portrait against the window blinds which offered something a little more interesting than the other three grey walls.  The portrait was used alongside editorial copy in the organiser's magazine, so you'll see the above frame gives space subject right for a text overlay.

Before these pictures Steve had been talking with a handful of journalists, one at a time, each with an allotted time frame of 10 minutes.  Typically, in this situation, photographs are left until last by which point most subjects aren't always engaged with the process.  Surprisingly, this time around Steve was very happy to pose, provided me with plenty of smiles, and even slipped me his business card - a slip of sleek machined metal with his contact information encrypted in code.  What a marvellous geek!
