Product Work.

Been working on some product shots for my Commercial Folio. Some of these wont make it some of them might... buts that's what this blog is for!

The Mystery Experience.

Was lucky enough to be commissioned for my first book cover a while ago by Duncan Baird Publishers. I didnt know anything about the author Tim Freke before hand but after a bit of research he sounds like a very interesting chap!

The First Men in the Moon.

Been wanting to play with really old Photos for a while, pretty tough to get looking how I wanted...
Loosely based on the H.G. Wells novel 'The First Men in the Moon'.

Is it Photography? Is it Illustration? hmmm

Here is the original shot of the man that was used, found in a set of Victorian Cabinet Cards, from around 1880!

House of ££££

Here is a recent commission that's just come out for the lovely people at Which? magazine. Was a lot of fun to work on!

Still Life.

Been working hard on some new still life shots for the portfolio, went pretty much all out on the otherworldly foliage!

Making of...

Had a really great response to the 'Animal Portrait' series, with a lot of people asking how they were made..
Well here are 4 different shots that went into making the Horned-Cow image, they were then comped together, colour corrected and colour graded, along with some magic ;-)

And Now for Something Completely Different.

The Giraffe image here started as a test shot for something more complex that I want to shoot, but I love it and decided to turn it into a little series of animal portraits...

Giraffes

Ankole (Horned Cow)

Lion

Ostrich
