Altered Images »
I am featured in an astounding new book ‘Altered Images’, compiled by RomanyWG.
The book has 50 contributing photographers from 18 different countries, including artists you may have heard of through Flickr and other photo-sharing sites. The artists include Max Sauco, Aaron Nace, Solea/Carmen Gonzalez, Mattijn Franssen and Lissy Elle. My images [...]
My music video: Unbreakable »
(or view on YouTube)
This is my first music video made for LA-based band Gunslinger, filmed on location in one day, in Ashdown Forest in Kent and an abandoned house in East Sussex.
This video was originally planned and filmed for Gunslinger’s track Run for your life. But it was in editing, one night in the early [...]
Tim Andrews: Over the Hill »
Last year I shot Tim Andrews as part of his unique project, where he put himself forward to be shot by over 100 photographers including Rankin, Jillian Edelstein, and Harry Borden. Shooting Tim was one of my most different, and artistically exciting experiences (as I detailed on my blog post). I am happy that my [...]
My recent workshops in LA, London & Eastbourne with Brooke Shaden »
Over the past month I have had the pleasure of co-hosting four sell-out workshops with Brooke Shaden. I first met Brooke through Flickr and co-hosted two LA workshops with her last November. Not long after I had returned home to the UK, we received the news that we had both been accepted for Photo LA [...]
I finally put my movie mode to good use… »
When I was over in LA with Brooke Shaden in November, we found the chance to make a video together just before the end of the trip. Brooke wanted to take her ‘Sac’ theme further into moving image (see her Sac set here). I was surprised at how easily it came together especially considering that [...]
Shooting Visions of Trees »
In October I shot a commission for the band Visions of Trees. I met with the management and the band at my East London exhibition in August, and we’d been on the lookout for interesting locations for a collaboration since then. The brief was to produce publicity photos using styles and techniques from my own [...]
Shooting for Apple & Eve »
(Above: view on Flickr)
In September I was commissioned to shoot images for a fashion label called Apple & Eve. The theme was to be quintessentially English, using quaint locations, which was very much to the taste of the Phillippines-based brand. There were a lot of images resulting from the one-day shoot…
The shoot involved two different [...]
Collaborating with Brooke Shaden »
Staying with, and collaborating with Brooke Shaden in LA has been a wonderful and enlightening experience. Our primary intention was to host two collaborative workshops which I wrote about in my last blog entry. The rest of the time, apart from preparing for, shopping for, and recovering from our workshops, was spent shooting together.
Hallowe’en in [...]

Only this week have I announced my first London workshops for 4 & 5 Sep, but I’ll waste no time in also letting you know I will be doing collaborative workshops with fellow art photographer Brooke Shaden on the US west coast in November!
MASTERCLASS: Bringing art into photography
This course is for photographers/aspiring artists who want [...]
Photographing Tim »
Recently I had the pleasure of photographing a man called Tim Andrews. Since retiring from his job as a lawyer because of Parkinson’s disease, Tim has been photographed by over 100 different photographers, from photography degree students, to ‘established’ artists including Rankin, Harry Borden, Mike McCartney and Jillian Edelstein, who have all interpreted his character and [...]
