Stitching Up the Celebrities

I don’t often think about what I wear to work, as long as it’s comfortable and capable of being in trend, that’s enough for me. Being an automotive photographer, I can’t really afford to fall in love with my clothes as it’s a hands on job that can get a bit dirty. As you’ve seen […]

Spectacular Camera Coincidence with Kodak from the Costa Del Arcane

Spectacular Camera Coincidence with Kodak from the Costa Del Arcane

When on a cycling trip in Spain I did what any self-respecting photographer would and took a trip round a flea market to seek out any bargains. One stall caught my eye as it held a selection of vintage cameras, most notably a 1950’s Bakelite Kodak Brownie 127. Anyone as old as me remembers their […]

Real Men Need Reliable Tools that Don’t Let Them Down

You’ll remember a couple of months back I made a visit to the North Sea, a visit that was not to be taken lightly. (See here). I trained intensively to be allowed into this harsh environment where waves would crash with a double decker force and the wind chill would freeze the sweat on your […]

Head Rush for Film Featuring a Pal’s Talent

Head Rush for Film Featuring a Pal’s Talent

Earlier this year I waxed lyrical about a pal in the industry that impressed me. Piers has a captivating workshop in the midst of a hidden valley, using his airbrushing talent to bring detail to many automotive related objects. He’s not one to shout about what he does because quite frankly he doesn’t need to, […]

#KXSQ marks the spot – Big Bird over King’s Cross Square

This weekend I’ve been travelling in style, soaring above London in one of my favourite machines. Taking on a job shooting London’s King’s Cross Square I couldn’t wait to hop in the helicopter and capture the Network Rail team marking 10 days to go before project completion. Clouded in secrecy trial runs were essential as […]

It Must Be Love – Despite the Delhi Belly I Couldn’t Resist Taking Pics!

One of the most unusual shoots I have worked on was when I traveled to India to shoot a Ford Press Ad. Initially it seemed like many other shoots, but this trip turned into a time I’ll never forget. The concept was creative genius, thanks to the team at Young and Rubicam London, particularly Sam […]

Capturing Copters on Camera

You’ll probably remember earlier in the year when I was dragged along (not so reluctantly) to join in a charity raft race. With my good friend raising money for the Midlands Air Ambulance Charity I really couldn’t refuse. So with a bottle of rum and a stop at a couple of riverside pubs, we took […]

Revealing the Secrets between Men and Their Machines

Revealing the Secrets between Men and Their Machines

It’s no secret that I’ve got a bit of a thing for engines. Whether it’s a motorbike in need of TLC or the latest Lamborghini, there’s a bond there that will never be broken. I’ve found, while travelling that this obsession is not uncommon as there are a lot of us out there that have […]
