Acting Headshot for Will

A fourth year linguist, Will has been acting throughout his time at Cambridge, and is hoping to pursue a career in drama. His agent recommended that he get a new headshot photo, and I was highly recommended by one of his peers (one of my muses),...

Canvas Print – CUTAZZ Lyrical Dance

Canvas Print – CUTAZZ Lyrical Dance

After the CUTAZZ Dance Show, I was approached by the boyfriend of the dance teacher / lead performer (Natalie Demain), to make a canvas print of one of her dances that I’d photographed, as a birthday present. I put together a few drafts of different artistic styles for the print, and a week later, the canvas was delivered in time for her birthday, and I think looks rather...

Abi & Mark's Wedding

Abi & Mark's Wedding

Two friends of mine met on an Oxbridge trip two and a half years ago, and they’re now married :) They chose Wadham College, Oxford, as the location for the ceremony and celebrations, as the bride’s grandfather is a fellow at the college. Very handy, as it made for a pretty wedding location. It also meant I was able to go to the upper balcony in Hall to get a photo of...

"The Planets" – CU Ballet Show

"The Planets" – CU Ballet Show

The third dance show that I’ve photographed this term; the Ballet Society performed seven pieces set to Holst’s “Planets” Suite. The highlight was Venus, a pas de deux danced beautifully by Sarah Wilkinson. Another piece involved five dancers with shawls, and one shot came out looking as if the dancer was holding a large...

More photos from another dance show this term – the annual CU Tap & Jazz (CUTAZZ) dance show, this year named “Staged”. Very similar in range and quality as last year’s CUTAZZ show, with Natalie Demain’s lyrical dancing standing out again. More photos from the CUTAZZ Dance Show on...

Acting Headshot for Zara

Acting Headshot for Zara

Zara graduated last year, and her London agent suggested she get a new headshot. Not keen to pay London prices for results she wasn’t overly pleased with last time, she’d seen some of my recently-taken acting headshots up in the ADC Theatre, and got in touch. Strong recommendations from her peers who themselves were happy customers also helped...

CUCDW Dance Show Publicity

CUCDW Dance Show Publicity

Having photographed the annual CUCDW Dance Show at the ADC for the last few years, this year’s show director asked if I’d take photos for the show’s publicity. An accomplished dancer herself, we had a photoshoot in St. John’s College to get various poses and action shots in late November. Over the holidays, I offered to work on the publicity design as well,...

Cadenza Photoshoot

Cadenza Photoshoot

I was asked by a friend who sings in Cadenza, Cambridge’s premier a cappella sensation, to take their publicity photographs for this year. They had a weekend-long rehearsal session in Newnham College, and after a bit of exploring with one of the group’s Newnhamites, found a few suitable locations for their group photos. I was privileged to hear several of their songs...

Psychosemitic, featuring DJ Filastine and Y-Love

Psychosemitic, featuring DJ Filastine and Y-Love

Another of Psychosemitic’s fine events, this time in the great venue 93 Feet East, on Brick Lane. Starting the evening was DJ Filastine, who mixed live sampled-drumming with standard DJing. Impressive skills. Next up were Y-Love, a hiphop threesome of Orthodox Jews from Brooklyn, whose infectious choons feature English, Hebrew and Aramaic lyrics. Check out MySpace.com/ylove...

Oi Va Voi @ Cambridge Junction

Oi Va Voi @ Cambridge Junction

Oi Va Voi returned to the Cambridge Junction, almost a year since their last gig, but this time touring with their latest, eponymous, album. Performing in the main stage this time, they brought out old crowd-pleasers “Yesterday’s Mistakes”, “Refugee” and “Od Yeshoma”. New favourite “Yuri” made an even bigger impact with the fans...
