Dirty Dancing
On a trip to the Norfolk Coast with the Cambridge University Rock’n'Roll Team, a couple showed off one of the more popular acrobatic moves, Dirty Dancing; however, the appearance of the wave wasn’t quite...
Read MoreLondon Red Bull Air Race
A friend hosted a party the night before the Red Bull Air Race, and his apartment in London’s Docklands had a fantastic view over the race course the next morning. You wouldn’t have seen images of aeroplanes flying low and fast over central London a few years...
Read MorePhotoshoot with Erica (Sportrait #2)
I’d already done an athlete portrait photoshoot with Erica, but we weren’t able to shoot on the athletics grounds at the time, so we arranged another shoot. She’s a champion high-jumper, but unfortunately the equipment wasn’t available, so we settled with the red-coloured track instead. View more athlete photos of Erica on...

After some stunning acro rock’n'roll photos at sunset of Barny & Jenny, we decided to take a few more photos on the St. John’s...
Read MorePhotoshoot – Erica's Sportrait
I’d wanted to take a sport portrait of Erica since I photographed her winning Cuppers High Jump last year. This is my first photoshoot with off-camera flash, and I’m pretty pleased with the results – having a great model meant the photos would be good regardless! See the rest of the photoshoot on...

A few hours after the orchard photoshoot with Sarah, and after a Rock’n'Roll practice, I invited a couple from the team back to mine for dinner. As we were walking up Castle Hill, I realised that the sun was about to set, we were right next to Castle Mound, and the couple were capable of doing some great acro. About a year ago, I started planning a set of photos of Cambridge...

While these photos weren’t taken by me, they do feature me; they were taken by another great Cambridge photographer, Reggie Thomson. He normally photographs beautiful landscapes, flowers, and Cambridge colleges, and for the first time tried his hand at dance photography, with great success. I dance in the Cambridge University Rock’n'Roll Team, which performs acrobatic...
Read MoreCuppers Athletics
On this beautifully sunny Saturday, athletes of all abilities and disciplines competed in the intercollegiate Cuppers Athletics competition. Last year, Jesus College won quite overwhelmingly by fielding the majority of competitors. This year, determined to keep their trophies, they repeated this tactic – not only did they have entrants in every event, but they won most of...
Read MoreBoat Race – Cambridge 79, Oxford 73
For the 2nd time in my Cambridge history, I headed down to the Thames with friends to watch the boat race. The last time was in 1998, when Cambridge thrashed Oxford and set a course record. This time, Cambridge were favourites again after a recent run of losses, and started the race behind. The calm coxing of Rebecca Dowbiggin and consistent pressure from the Cambridge eight...
