Glamour & Grime – BTS on the L200 Shoot

Glamour & Grime – BTS on the L200 Shoot

I do enjoy a location shoot like this, not because of the conditions but more because of the results they create. Let me start from the beginning. I’d just returned from the heat & dust of a GMC location shoot in 100 degree temperatures in the US when this project came in. The brief – show the […]

Feeling the Heat with Technological Warfare

Feeling the Heat with Technological Warfare

Have you ever received a warning from your iPhone in the summer? *your phone is about to over heat*. It’s rare but, don’t try this at home, if you leave it in the sun for too long you’ll be shown this message. Try and pick it up and you’ll burn your fingers, thanks to the […]

Outlander Insider Scenes to Believe

Outlander Insider Scenes to Believe

This week we’ve returned to the studio to shoot the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle for the uninitiated!). This cracking new low emission SUV combines 4WD along with electric power and the back-up of a 2 litre engine. There was no need to put it through its paces this time though as we […]

Hi Ho Savannah Lining – BTS on a CGI shoot

Hi Ho Savannah Lining – BTS on a CGI shoot

If you’ve ever thought that photography for CGI is done with a single shot my latest ‘adventure’ will show you otherwise. This week I’ve been shooting the backgrounds and HDRs for a top secret car that is not even off the production line yet! It may seem a little premature but those of you who […]

From Fame to Forsaken, the Car that Gets Everywhere

From Fame to Forsaken, the Car that Gets Everywhere

I’ve been working with Mitsubishi very recently, this time shooting the Mirage. You’ll see from the pics that it’s a chirpy looking car that comes in a rainbow of colours. The brief was to shoot it in action in the city to showcase how nippy it can be. The ideal car from getting from A […]

From City to Country with a Lake In-between – Take Two

From City to Country with a Lake In-between – Take Two

Every car I shoot has its own USP. It’s either great as a nippy city car, excellent on long winding roads “Italian Job” style or capable of climbing the most hostile landscapes in the middle of the Moors. The car usually gives me an idea of where the shoot will take place. If it’s urban, […]

Want a Bit of the White Stuff?

Want a Bit of the White Stuff?

Anyone that’s complained that our winter hasn’t been white enough needs to go to the top of a hill in the middle of the country on a windy day. I’m not going to complain too much as I’ve seen what winter’s done to the homes of my friends in the South, and we’d probably prefer […]

Back on the Road, Further North I Go

Back on the Road, Further North I Go

I must have got a taste for the wet and the cold on the North Sea as no sooner had my sea legs got used to dry land, was I off again a few days before Christmas. This time I decided to treat myself, by staying firmly on the ground. It didn’t stop me getting […]

It’s Wet Up North (and cold, and freezing and life threatening!)

It’s Wet Up North (and cold, and freezing and life threatening!)

You’ll remember quite some months ago I had a few days on a BOSIET course where I was thrown into a range of real life situations, each one involving water. That course was to prepare me for a spot of photography on the high seas, an event that took place in December, and probably the […]

Just to give you a scope of the project from design data to end imagery: – Shoot 5 backplates and light domes then composite CGI cars into them. – Configurator combinations comprising: 10 colours, 10 graphic packs, 4 trim levels, 3 angles, […]
