Here's another Q&A, this time with Wilson Hennessy.

Who is your favourite photographer, historical or contemporary or both and why?
Andy Warhol.

Why did you take up photography as a career initially, and how did you get your first break into the business?
I didn’t get into Med school.  An Art director friend Sam, gave me both first still life job and my first car job.

If you had to have one, what would be your favourite photograph that you have taken, and why? 
My latest one. Always look forward never backI 

Why do you like being a photographer?
I rarely work on Mondays so I never get the Sunday evening blues.

If you were going to work in a field of photography other than your own, what would it be?
Why would I want to do that I have the best job in the world.

If you hadn't become a photographer, what do you think you might be doing instead?
An Astronaut, that was third choice after med school and photography. Unicorn Jockey was next.
