As I spend much of my life trying to make people look slimmer than they are through cunning use of lighting, angles, & occasionally photoshop, it’s an entirely different challenge to celebrate a baby bump. Rachael did help quite a bit by thoughtfully putting...

I shot this gorgeous couple last summer as a test. Things I learned… 1) It’s more than twice as difficult making two people look good at the same time. They can’t pose separately, & making it look like a natural pose generally means one of them...

As a companion piece to my favourite beach shots the other day, I thought I’d share some things I’ve found about shooting on beaches. I was living in Gran Canaria when I took up photography & for the first three years pretty much every shoot involved a...

One of the reasons for starting this blog is to show photos that I can’t post on social media. I shoot quite a bit of art nude, I love the way that light plays across skin, & I think it’s one of the things I’m better at, so it’s good to...

I have a new project. Having acquired a glitterball during the course of my working day, as you do (thanks Bam!), I’ve used it in shoots a couple of times & liked the way that light plays off the body, so I’d like to use it more, but it tends to only...

The vast majority of my paid work is of individual girls, & fun though that is, it’s always nice to have to shoot something different. This glamorous couple had hired London’s largest hotel room (allegedly) at Bethnal Green Town Hall Hotel for his...
