I’ve totally become obsessed with portrait photography in the last few months and I have another set of portraits to show you this week, of dance teacher, actor and model Reanne. Very chilled and fun photoshoot, Reanne was super relaxed in front of the camera and very easy to photograph, and I’m really pleased with the final set of images. If you would be interested in some portrait photography please get in touch . Portraits taken on location in Norwich, Norfolk, UK. Read Full Story

A recent portrait photo shoot, great fun as ever and came away with a few great shots. A serious rugby player and the emphasis of the shot couldn’t help to be highlighting the gun show. I couldn’t help trying to get that hero / comic book style colouring and lighting, and think we got what we were looking for. Matt randomly just happened to bring the best shirt he could of for the shoot, it works so well – captain America style!
For the lighting techies : 22″ gridded beauty dish as main... Read Full Story

I totally forgot about these photographs until I stumbled across them today and remembered I never did work out quite what was causing the rainbow like haze in the distance. It’s not camera related as I could see it with the naked eye, does anyone know what could be causing it? I’m guessing it’s just the approaching rain & storm clouds causing a low rainbow effect, but I never seen it quite like this before. You can see in the next photo along that the rain clouds were very close, within... Read Full Story

Time to get back with some of the travel photography I am well behind on, I’ve not posted many images since the last travel photography blog post, which was in the Angkor Complex in Cambodia. Just to finish up that series, I found a few more images that I love. This first photograph was taken of a resident nun at the Pre Reap Temple, handing us incense sticks as we entered.

Featuring incredible footage shot on the CineFlex HD, RED, Panasonic AJ-HPX3700, and Phantom HD Gol, the incredible Cineflex stabilising gimbal hanging underneath the Red Bull makes for some super incredible imagery. Awesome slow mo and great use of polygon... Read Full Story

I’ve been spending quite a while over last week trawling through my photographs, especially some of which I had almost forgotten about. These two very similar images I took in the Seychelles a couple of years ago, and love them very much, the colours, the movement in the dress from the warm Indian Ocean winds. I would love to go back there again, I miss it terribly! Read Full Story
