Photoshoot with Rebecca (Meadows)

Photoshoot with Rebecca (Meadows)

I’ve been taking advantage of the glorious weather, and have been doing more photoshoots with my muses (5 this week). This is my third photoshoot with Rebecca (see photos from the first photoshoot, and of her acting headshots). The meadows on Lammas Land and Castle Mound were covered in Cow Parsley, which made for similar photos to the first shoot, but pretty much every photo...

Rock'n'Roll – Sunset Silhouettes

Rock'n'Roll – Sunset Silhouettes

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...

An Insight Into Photostitching

An Insight Into Photostitching

The first step in creating a photostitch is to take the photographs. For this photostitch (The River Cam in the Mist at Magic Hour), I wanted to create as large an image as possible, so set my camera to maximum zoom – this would lead to more photographs being required to cover the subject matter. I then fixed the camera’s shutter speed, aperture, focus, and white...

Misty Magic Hour

Misty Magic Hour

Seeing that it was still foggy at midday when I headed out for some Christmas Shopping, I took my camera with the intention of getting some photos of Cambridge in the mist. Sure enough, as I reached the peak of Garret Hostel Lane bridge, the following pictoresque sight awaited me; along with several other people taking photos. This first photo is my favourite – it’s a...

The gym never looked so good

The gym never looked so good

Walking across Parker’s Piece, the gym next to Kelsey Kerridge was lit by the setting sun, with the moon rising just behind it.

Portrait with new flashgun

Portrait with new flashgun

I bought a flashgun, the excellent Canon 430EX Speedlite, to help with my portrait and wedding photography. I’m photographing a wedding this weekend, and from past weddings I’ve photographed know that it will be very useful for formal photographs in sunlight, and for the after-dinner party. To make sure I know how to use it on the day, I took a couple of photos of some...

Sweden

Sweden

I travelled to Sweden for a few days to attend a Rock’n'Roll Dance Camp/Workshop. We didn’t see much of Sweden, as the CURnR team members were there primarily to receive world-class training, but the 90 minute drive to Stockholm airport provided some beautiful scenery. Our trainers, Wim & Griet from Belgium, showed why they were at the top of the World Championship...

Sunsets

Sunsets

I’m finally getting round to adding a few more collections of photos in the Projects section of my website. The first one shows various sunsets that I have photographed over the last few years, in places including France, South Africa, and Cambridge. I’ve created a quick collage of the best photographs below, and you can view the originals in my collection of sunset...

Landscape fading into the sunset

Landscape fading into the sunset

Another clear and mild day in Cambridge, so I took my camera out to capture some of magic hour. This time, I wandered around the St. John’s backs briefly, before heading up to my favourite haunt, Castle Mound, to watch the sun set. These next two photos were taken 4 minutes apart, and are quite similar to a stunning mountainscape I took in Edinburgh. I love photos...
