Photos that helped sell my apartment on Facebook
Before resorting to estate agents (and their huge commission fee), I decided to try to sell my apartment in Cambridge myself. I knew how to take better photographs than the estate agents would produce, listed on a handful of websites, and created an event on Facebook for as many of my friends to share as possible, in the hope of finding a buyer. And it worked, far too well. A day...
Read MoreDance in Focus – Exhibition
The morning after the Canada Day celebrations in Trafalgar Square, I had a client meeting in London’s Angel Building, so I stayed in town and checked out the Dance in Focus exhibition in City Hall. It features photographs taken during a two day dance photography workshop run by Chris Nash that I attended in May. Two of my photographs feature in the exhibition, which runs...
Read MoreCanada Day in London
Since deciding to go and live in Vancouver for a while, I’ve made lots of Canadian friends in Cambridge, and we headed down to Trafalgar Square to celebrate Canada Day (or Canada D’Eh?! as I prefer to spell it :) There were so many smiling faces, people dressed in red, and politeness and friendliness everywhere you looked. The celebrations and on-stage performances...
Read MoreCambridge Ballerina Project – Yi Yi
Yi Yi is another dancer new to the Cambridge University Ballet Club, whose abilities shone in the show this year. As with Ana‘s shoot, the weather and exams prevented our shooting together until the day before she left Cambridge for the summer. Luckily, after weeks of rain and cold, the weather suddenly warmed up, so we arranged a dawn shoot so we could shoot in town without...
Read MoreCambridge Ballerina Project – Kizzie
Kizzie is the new president of the Cambridge University Ballet Club, and while that doesn’t automatically lead to a Cambridge Ballerina Project shoot (Lara, Hanna and Helen have all been on the committee), Kizzie did shine in this year’s show. She’s a student at Robinson College, one which I had not yet photographed for the Project, and it is almost entirely made...

I photographed Claire in the very first shoot of the Cambridge Ballerina Project two years ago. After months of cold and rain, the Summer finally reached Cambridge, so it’s fitting that Claire was the first shoot of this summer too. See more shoots from the Cambridge Ballerina Project on...

Lara is president of the CU Ballet club this year, and produced the annual ballet show, Cinderella. As she is a student at Girton college, it was an obvious choice of location for our shoot. More...
Read MoreConjunction of the Moon, Venus & Jupiter
In a relatively rare event, Venus and Jupiter were both very visible and close to each other in the evening sky, with the Moon passing between them. Cambridge was blessed with clear skies throughout this period, so I was able to photograph the progress of the Moon relative to the two planets, across three nights. Venus is above Jupiter in these photos, which were taken at Castle...

A second photoshoot with Suzie, this year’s lead dancer in the Cambridge University Ballet show. The weather was surprisingly warm and sunny given the cold winter, so we headed out to a bright urban location, Cambridge’s new West Cambridge...
