Product Photography : Asics Tiger - Running Shoes

December 15, 2018 in Photography, Product

I photograph people a lot and it’s my first love in photography, product Photography is a close second.

It’s relaxing to be locked (not literally) in your studio with just you, a product and your camera/lights. I can zone out and focus on the work and not tripping over the 7 plus light stands I have deployed.

Products are the smaller subjects that I photograph yet they end up requiring the most gear to be used…. Go figure.

If anyone is wondering the shoes are great, I bought a pair. Very comfortable for walking in…. what you think I’m going to go running? Images after the jump.

Event Cover : Baptism - Baby Ella

June 20, 2018 in Event, Photography

Last weekend I was hired to photograph the Baptism of the beautiful baby Ella at the Emmanuel Methodist United Reformed Church in Ormskirk.

Ella was good a gold during the Baptism. According to my mum I kicked up a storm at mine, read in to that as you will.

It was a pleasure to meet and work with this lovely family. On to some images from the day.

A Shoot with Sarah Angel

January 02, 2018 in Portrait, Photography, #GOYA

Hello and Happy New Year. All the best for everyone in 2017 no wait… 2018! - I'm the person that will be writing 2017 for the next 6 months until I finally remember it's 2018.

Starting this year this blog is being brought back to client work and personal work only. For the technical and photograph tutorial related blog posts you can go check out my other blog – The Craft.

This shoot is one of the last shoots of 2017 (the others are in post-production).

I have photographed Sarah a few times and she always brings a ton of energy to a shoot/set. We started with the blue background to A fit the looks and ideas and B to break away from White Seamless for a little while, although you will see that I ended up back on that classic setup later on.

As a photographer sometimes, it’s on you to come up with an idea for a shot or a lighting setup that fits but thankfully a lot of the time the work comes from a collaboration and a team. I have always considered any shoot to be a collaboration, they just have to be… I work with people (clients, models, students, assistants, MUA’s) and everyone is part of the team for that job. Anyway let’s get to the images.

Head Shot Session – For Model Agency Applications

July 17, 2017 in Client Work, Headshots, Photography

Head shots can be required for many reasons in today’s world.

Job applications.
Digital CV.
Social Media Profiles.
Worker ID Cards.
Staff Profiles.

And for applications for model agencies which is what this head shot session was about.

Chris called me and booked in a session after a brief talk over the phone. The brief was to provide head shots for applications to a model agency.

These can be very similar to casting head shots as is they just need to show your like ness and that’s it. Nothing fancy required as they have to show the real you un retouched.

We started the session by getting those shots done. One straight on shot and a few side profile shots, I am not showing those images here (NDA) but they fit the brief and agency requirements. What I can show are some additional head shots taken and a bonus portrait they we had time to produce.
