He came down and saw my work I exhibited at the Pipe Gallery back in March and wants to put my final images in his magazine that reaches over 80 different countries!
Excited is an understatement.

David Fielding

Just secured two more weddings in June with David as a second photographer. I initially started working with David last year and we did a wedding together. The shoot was a big success and he was extremely happy with the photos I produced for him.

Harry Vinnicombe - Barnfield

So after doing the poster for Harry, I was then commissioned to come a long to the actual event and take pictures of him and his backing band. It was a real challenge for me as I've never gone a band/gig before, but I knew lighting would be really tight. I expected to be shooting on a high ISO, and in the end I ended up shooting on 32000 ISO, which was od for me, as I'm used to doing studio photographs at ISO 50/100. I was worried about what sort of noise I would get, and after looking at the image there was a lot of noise. So I decided to keep with the vintage theme they wanted and edited all the photos in Sepia to eliminate the noise as much as it possible could. Anyway, here a link to the out come of the photos have a look and like my page :)

Taylor James

After loosing my love for photography recently I had a chat with my lecturer about what other directions I could head in other than solely photography. Mu tutor told me to look into Taylor James and she thought it would suit me. In all fairness it does, I'm a very digital kinda guy and love to manipulate digital images. A digital darkroom is where I would mostly be seen, rather than your standard film darkroom.
So I decided to check them out, and a good browse round their website. I found their introduction very summerative and got me clued up on what they did.

A high-end Creative Production Studio working at the forefront of digital production, we blend innovative storytelling with technical expertise. Renowned for photographic realism & attention to detail, we deliver content across print, interactive & broadcast media. With CGI, photography, live-action & post-production under one roof, our studios in London and New York tailor productions to realise the full potential of your campaign.

It interested me that they don't just do photographs, they do a range of  media formats including video and film which involved CGI.

Here's some of their work I found intriguing and inspirational.



They also take you throught it step by step in how they did it, very clever!
