Having done our 5 shoots in one day

It was a pleasure working with Alana on a new shoot! She is definitely fun to work with and we managed to get some lovely images in our short shoot slot!

Normally we set aside a 3 hour window so that we get a number of outfits and a lot of poses in each outfit!

This shoot was a shorter shoot time of two hours so it tested us a little !

Taking into account that we had five shoots booked in so ten hours of booked shoot time and then getting ready for the next client it was a fast think on your feet day!

With Each client changing around 5 times some did more! But having lighting set up and keeping a constant flow of ideas is what made this happen !

With most shoots we plan out what’s going to happen so we know we get the shots! This shoot was a little more think on our feet ! Short notice new lighting small space!

But I think we managed it!

What do you all think here are a few of the images from the shoot definitely a mix of lovely images

Let us know what you think always welcome a comment !

Can a portrait and boudoir photographer turn his hand to automotive photography

I’ve been thinking the last few months where the money could be in this art of photography!

Some may say family portraits, weddings and baby photography.

I’ve looked at things the last few weeks and have seen that there are very few automotive photographers based in the UK and there is definitely a call for people wanting pictures of their pride and joy!

Not only the small business shoots in automotive but then there is the big fish working for companies shooting cars for sale or hire

Maybe even working for the main stream car companies like Ford or Mercedes who need images !

The hard part is can anyone who does photography have the ability to create pleasing automotive images that would make a client happy !

As people may know, I’m normally a portrait and boudoir photographer.. but at the weekend I set myself a small goal and took on the chance of shooting a car show !

I got some pretty good shots I think and managed to capture the beauty of a Ford Focus RS which was a beautiful car that truly captured my eye!

I think this could be something I may have to add to my list of potential shoots … With a little training I’m sure that I can get this down and give clients more than the quality work they are looking for at a great price !

Take a look at these images below and let me know what you think!

Well was a fun day Monday ! Managed to get 5 shoots booked in on one day! Sadly I can’t post images from all only two wanted images shared!

But I will be posting some of the work from the two that said share away!

Love busy days in this business! And most of all the happy clients! And that “love” word

The below image is from the shoot with female model Alana! We managed to get some great shots in the studio ! And I think one pretty happy client !

And then there was the shoot with up and coming new model jack,

we did a few shots in the studio, but went out on location to get some relaxed candid images and captured this one among many great images.

Keep watching this space for more images

Thank you to Alana and Jack for working with me!

Been getting to grips with editing some of the images from my photo shoot with up and coming model Jack Howe.

Honestly guys n girls if you’re looking for a great male model this guy is fun to work with.

Jack Takes his modelling serious and will pose until you get the money shot ! I can’t wait to work with him again in a weeks time!

Look out for even more images coming up over the next few weeks but here are just a few to keep you all going!

Please let me know what you think! It’s much appreciated

Weekly themed blog posts starting soon!

As of Monday January 7th there will be set of weekly posts with a set theme

I’m working on ideas like model Monday… tech Thursday and set up Saturday

These post will be created so that there is a helpful idea to try each week to grow and learn the art of photography!

Such as with “model Monday” will create a post with ways to interact pose the model what to do, what not to do and what to look for!

Tech Thursday Will be to learn what each camera setting does, how it impacts the shots you take and what creative aspects each setting will create when used correctly! Or incorrectly

And set up Saturday will be a 52 week lighting set up showing what lights used how I set up the shot, what I looked for and why I did it! This series should help those who are learning to try and set up different shots and recreate something similar!

All the above is my take on photography and what I look for or how I see the setting it’s not how all photographers will see it as everything within photography is subjective but learning how others create something or work the camera or lighting is a step closer to finding what works for you!

So if the above is something that you will find interesting or if you know someone who would be interested in learning because they /you got a camera for Christmas or birthday then please follow or share the post

I’m really looking forward to sharing what I’ve learnt and hope that you all will enjoy learning from what I post!

The above is only part of what’s going to be posted on this blog so keep watching and keep learning ! You to could be learning to take images like this one below!

So we are a day into 2019 yes one whole day nearly gone!

But it’s looking good been in the editing room getting some of the shots sorted for this post!

Sorted some new lighting tests and loving the new statistic lights not only for video but for photography too!

So what do you think of these guys have to say I’m over the moon with this shoot! Loved working with Amber R she always pulls out all the stops and creates something beautiful and spectacular!

I’ve had the pleasure to work with Amber on a number of shoots over the last few years but these shots just blow me away!

Take a look at a few below!

I’m so happy with these images now like with most photographers we all have that one person we look up to our so called inspiration! Well I have to say this shoot was inspired by someone I look up to In a big way!

A guy called Jason Lanier his a Sony artisan and a Rotolight master of light! I’ve been following his work for about 5 years and this man is a legend!

Well I was looking at a few of his shots and wanted to get something that would stand out to his amazing standard ! And to me the shipwreck shots are getting there! We all need inspiration someone to look up to but never to copy create your own work !!
