  Photons radiated in heavy-ion collisions are a penetrating probe, and as such
can play an important role in the determination of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP)
transport coefficients. In this work we calculate the bulk viscous correction
to photon production in two-to-two scattering reactions. Phase-space integrals
describing the bulk viscous correction are evaluated explicitly in order to
avoid the forward scattering approximation which is shown to be poor for
photons at lower energies. We furthermore present hydrodynamical simulations of
AA collisions focusing on the effect of this calculation on photonic
observables. Bulk corrections are shown to reduce the elliptic flow of photons
at higher $p_T$.
