Lighting

I really feel like I'm starting to understand lighting a little bit more. It's really important because I don't have to rely on photoshop so much and the images have more of a natural feel to them then. I'm noticing how my photos are looking completely different to when I started - hopefully a sign of improvement.

Had 3 shoots today including a lovely bridal one. The dress was BEAUTIFUL. Also another shoot with a mixture of lingerie/clothing etc the girl was stunning with a natural curvy figure and I'm more than sure she could make it as a glamour model if she wanted.

More news:

Been asked to do a feature in a local magazine which is exciting - just need to cast a female model over 5ft10!

Anyway check back soon to find out more!

Alt girl shoot

So did the shoot with Sammi and wow she was awesome! Such a natural and needed no direction - full of poses and different facial expressions. Made a night change shooting someone different as Sammi is full of tattoos! Gonna take me a lot longer to retouch the images because of her tats but she's more than worth it.

We did some shots including MASSIVE high heeled boots, an eye patch and a rabbit's head! It was freaky but definitely so much fun and I'm already looking forward to my next shoot with her. She has a very photogenic face and a lovely curvy body.

Here's one of the images - more to follow.

Blogging away

I've decided to get a blog going on. I've always thought it was a bit sad and pretentious when people ''blog'' but it's a good way for people to keep up to date with what I'm doing and hopefully get me a bit of exposure.


Not done this before - it feels like an online diary - bit odd but I'll roll with it.


Been editing a load of pictures today - mainly for girls who have had shoots done just for nice pics - not necessarily models. It's sometimes more fun doing these kinda shoots as the girls seem happier and bit more surprised when they seem themselves nicely airbrushed and made to look their best :)



Bought some new lighting kit as well - only used it on myself so far (sad I know). Making a great difference. Got a load of shoots booked in so can't wait to use it. Also, shooting with up and coming model Sammi ''Nancy Harry'' Martin. See below

I love her look and creativity - we have some brilliant ideas in mind which I haven't tried before so I'm really looking forward to working with her. I shall be uploading some images after our shoot so check back to see.
