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 […]

Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year!

It has been rather hectic the last few weeks with back-to-back shoots in the North Sea and Scotland, so no opportunity for writing the blog 🙁 ! I have worked with some great people in amazing locations, so will be posting more on those in January. In the meantime, here is one of a series […]

Tis the Season for Self Made Scrumpy

Tis the Season for Self Made Scrumpy

It’s no secret that we live just far enough away from the city to enjoy a bit of rural living. Mostly this allows me to the space to play on quad bikes and motorbikes without upsetting anyone. Part of the land though is actually an orchard with great old apple trees that bear quite a […]

I’m Either Completely Mad or the World’s Coolest Dad

I’m Either Completely Mad or the World’s Coolest Dad

I don’t have to tell you that I love cars, I love speed and I love off-roading so it’s natural that my kids would share at least a bit of their Dad’s passion. To be fair, they couldn’t avoid it if they tried as motors are everywhere, from our drive, to reminders, to family days […]

Digging Out the Royal Suit to Dress up for Dressage

Digging Out the Royal Suit to Dress up for Dressage

Remember that sunny month way back in June when the threat of “the worst winter yet” was just a twinkle in a cloud’s eye? I’m going to take you back there for a sec, let you forget about snow forecasts and give you an exclusive peep behind the scenes at Ascot. Donning a top hat […]

If a Classic Car Could Take a Selfie – It Would Look Like…

If a Classic Car Could Take a Selfie – It Would Look Like…

For a few weeks now I’ve been putting the Nokia Lumia 1020 through its paces. I’ve taken some great shots (it’s too late in the year for modesty) of copters, cars and landscapes. In a couple of weeks it’ll be coming on the North Sea with me as I choose it as my portable camera […]

Does Life Look Better with a Squint?

Does Life Look Better with a Squint?

I’ve been a fan of the Squint Showcase for some time now however it does conjure up strange images for me. Marrying squinting with photography makes me think of parents on Christmas Day as they try to decipher the 3D dolphin picture from a Magic Eye Book. Maybe I digress as this trend was a […]

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

#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 […]

The Environmental Impact of Snow in this Summer Weather

The Environmental Impact of Snow in this Summer Weather

I’ve always had a bit of a love hate relationship with snow. Just like every other driver and photographer does. It can produce some great images and give an extra challenge to a drive but it can also be a pain in the neck for everyday activity. Winter sports are obviously on my Love list […]

Capturing Copters on Camera

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 […]
