Note to all: this is what a professional model looks like. Stunning to photograph, stunning to work with, and so very competent and inspiring. And she LOVED my brownies. What more could you ask...
Read MorePhotoshoot with Dina
Dina is a final year student at Cambridge University. I’d wanted to arrange a shoot with her a year ago, but she was out of the country for her language year. She’s just returned, and got in touch with me asking for a shoot, so I guess we were both fans of each other’s work. She has truly striking features, which made the shoot worth the...
Read MorePhotoshoot with Amie
I’d been planning on attending a photoshoot with 4 models up North at the weekend, but had several other events taking place on the same day, so couldn’t go. Fortunately one of the models, Amie, was available at a studio not too far away, so I arranged a 2 hour shoot with her. I normally prefer a minimum of 3-4 hours for a shoot, to work through as many ideas, lighting...
Read MoreStudio Portraits with Holly
I photographed Holly back in February, and as she was visiting Cambridge this month, we arranged a couple of hours’ shooting together. We’d planned to use a local studio, and then shoot in some nearby woods, though the recent sunny weather ended the morning of our shoot, so we’ll hopefully get together again for the location shoot later this...
Read MoreIndoor Photoshoot with Ellie
After two gorgeous photoshoots with Ellie, I couldn’t wait to photograph her again, and there were still some outfits we hadn’t got round to photographing, so we arranged another shoot. I’ve just upgraded to Lightroom 3, and although it still seems buggy (i.e. MUCH slower than Lightroom 2), it does have better vignetting features, and some new processing presets,...
Read MorePhotoshoot with Ellie
I was so impressed with Ellie’s ballerina photoshoot last week, that I arranged an outdoor model photoshoot with her the following week. Many people ask her if she’s Lily Cole, and she also reminds me of several other celebrities (Debra Messing, Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Seyfried). Ellie suffered over 30 midge bites during the shoot (which I apologised for!), but so many of...
Read MoreGuen & Greg
A well-published model asked to do a photoshoot with me, so I arranged the hire of a local art gallery/studio to shoot in, as well as the great make-up artist (Emma Knight) whom I met at the Derelict Fashion photoshoot. Unfortunately, the model cancelled two days before the shoot, so I had to find some fill in models at short notice. As it was the middle of Cambridge’s exam...
Read MoreDerelict Fashion
The photographer who introduced me to off-camera studio lighting, Alex Beckett, organised a group shoot at a derelict RAF base. There were about 40 people involved in total, including amateur and experienced photographers, make-up artists, and models/musicians/dancers. As I’d had a shoot cancelled that weekend, I decided to take part, and brought along a handful of dancer...
