    One of the things I really enjoy about taking photos is the interesting locations you (sometimes) get to shoot at. I was asked to take some portraits for Merlin Entertainment on location at the London Eye, and it doesn’t get much better than that! Each rotation takes about 25 minutes so I had to get setup,…

    I am back from travels in Asia, I went with my girlfrind Fiona for a month and visited Singapore, Thailand and Laos. I took a lot of photos, and I am hoping to have some kind of exhibition later in the year. In the mean time I will put some up here once I have…

    I recently photographed a set of photos for an Oxford based band Invisible Vegas. I really enjoyed the project because the band gave me quite a free reign on the kind of shots they wanted. I found a great location in Oxfordshire by a river and with an old barn in the grounds. For this…

    Just a quick post of Tilly jumping up in the air on the roof of a garage! Setup shot here. I wasn’t quite sure if it was strong enough to hold us, let alone jump on it! Held up in the end though Elinchrom 500 as main light through softbox, and 250 head with reflector…

    Liam ‘Lima’ Eltham needed some photos to go on his BMX sponsor’s websites; Fox Racing. Thanks to a bit of scouting by me and some of my BMX friends a fantastic location near Oxford was found. A small lake in a nature reserve was used as the location. I choose to do the shoot just…

    I find it’s always a good idea to work with a concept when taking on a fashion shoot. This test shoot was to the theme of ‘Rock Chic’. The shoot was all done in my studio near Oxford with one or two studio strobe mono blocks, depending on the shot (Elinchrom 250 and 500 head).…

    A few weeks ago I had a fun fashion shoot with Caleb in the streets just outside of the centre of Oxford. This shot was lit with one Canon 580ex flash through a shoot through umbrella to the camera left, and then a Vivitar 285 also to the left but further back as a rim…

    Last week had a fun shoot with Jim to photograph 19 different types of leather jackets for Black Scissor tailoring. I have put a couple of my favourites up here, each jacket was shot from 3 different angles. Leather jackets are not an item of clothing which I normally wear but there were some really…
