Author Information

Fred Lucas engaged in various photography assignments for different companies and also operated a small portrait studio. His connection with chess emerged when he, being an amateur chess player at his club, received a request to capture some photos for the club's website. Following the club evening photos, he proceeded to photograph the annual open tournament. What fascinated Fred about chess was its inherent connection to people, which made it an intriguing subject for his photography. In 2004, Fred became the official photographer of the Corus Chess Tournament, a tournament that actually focused more on corporate photography. The emphasis was on capturing behind-the-scenes moments rather than the chess matches themselves. His exceptional work in the field of chess photography gained recognition, and his photographs were published in various international chess magazines. Additionally, prestigious newspapers like The New York Times and the French Le Monde featured his captivating images. He continued to cover several other tournaments in the Netherlands and abroad until retiring from the profession in 2013.
