new pictures!

Its sooooo cold outside , i nearly didn't upload some new photo's. but i prevailed and here you go.

kiss kiss bang bang!!

Iv just watched Kiss Kiss bang bang, what an awesome film. Very weird and crazy story line but beautiful lighting.

So it is 12.20 and iv decided to watch close encounters another amazing film with great lighting. If you haven't seen either of them i recommend them.

On the photography front. I will be heading home tomorrow and im hopefully going to shoot some more late night pics. Not sure where i am going to shoot them yet! So im going to do alittle location scouting in the morning then boring work for 6 hours, then fun times with my camera.

Hello!

Hello! Iv decided to go back in time again, i wanted to uploads some shot from 2005 on a trip to London. I was very intrigued about how comfortable people was of me taking their picture, so i took this to my advantage.

I took about 7 rolls of film that day and there is a large amount of shots i like. Just wish there was a colour neg enlarger around ( booooo).

( If you want to see more shots email me or if you want to buy prints just email and i will send a price list)

Follow up!

A follow up shoot to the portrait was my 'beat up' series. I have not really progressed past the two shots i have done because it took a while to set up and i had other work to be getting on with at the time. Its something that i hope to come back too though.

The top one is my girlfriend and the bottom one is a self portrait.

Portrait project

I did this project a while back now! (13/03/08). I wanted to use reflective light to cast a smooth filled out light to the images. I did not want to shoot typical portraits, so i asked my models to pull funny faces and shout a random word. These are one of my favorite set of portraits the pastel colours and cool background emphasizes their skin tones and features.

I would hope to try a lot more of these, it is more of a study of people facial movements and also bringing a little bit of their personality out. I have added a Polaroid type of boarder around them to make the images more personal to me.

Hmmmmm!

I have been a bit skeptical about the whole loading up of images onto website. Purely because of copyright issues. So i have decided to upload them with: low resolution and as small files.

I believe it is ok to use my images ( if any would! ha) as long as i have some sort of acknowledgment of where and what they are going to be shown on (also provided i am quoted as the photographer). At the end of the day to get a decent photograph you purchase high resolution ones. ( which if you would like email me).

Teud Hocks

While researching some other work, i came across Teud Hocks. His images are dreamlike and surreal, reminding me a lot of Rene Magrittes and Dali's paintings.

SNowy times

Its snowing today, i was stuck in doing work all day. As soon as i got home it was picture picture picture time. i loved it. Again when it got dark, i did some long exposes. here they are. WHat is it about snow that makes people soo happy. IT becomes a new vision to photographers, a white sheet that covered the 'norm' and makes it different, beautiful.

Chuck Close

We had a little moment, after watching Madagascar 2 ( awesome film), i can't remember how it started, but i mentioned how photorealistic chuck closes images are.

missed a few days- sorry

Iv missed a few days, been dead busy with uni work and work work. I decided to grab a few old shots from the past years. I was a very keen digital photographer that liked to manipulate everything! But now i like to get it done right no messing in photoshop unless it is essential.

Im going to upload a shot few a series called ' Last supersized supper' ( 2007). no photoshop went into this shot just alot of preparation and help from Silas Dominey with the lighting.
