Cars, Serious Cars!
I was asked to photograph a few cars last week and being a car lover of course I said yes, what I didn't expect was the range of beauty and savage power between them all.
Unfortunately the Aston is a pure track car with one seat and nothing else, so I was offered a ride in the WRC Escort Cosworth. What I noticed as I climbed in was the lack of, well, everything! I clipped myself into the 5 point racing harness and heard the loud growl of the 360bhp engine start. As we started off I was told not to touch the handle next to my right hand, this was the hydraulic brake, that allows for handbrake turns on the course and is very effective!
Pulling out onto the road I'm pushed back into my seat, leaving my stomach behind, as the turbo kicks in with savage force. The noise is deafening and amplified with all the stripped back to metal cockpit.
What can I say about the little Cosworth, it was unbelievably loud, cold, uncomfortable (not used to harnesses) and smelt of petrol but what it did do was put a MASSIVE smile on my face, one of the best driving experiences of my life, I want to go rallying now!
Barmen & Barista's
I love a good coffee and have been known to partake in the occasional cocktail, so what better personal project to shoot!
Jamie and Luke were great guys to work with and I can't thank them and The Lounges cafe/bar enough for letting me use their space.
NBC Universal Group
Commissioned by NBC Universal to shoot their International Television global sales team while they were all in London.
All shot on my Canon 5d mk3 and lit with Elinchrom lighting.
Michael Squire Architect
A lovely commission to shoot some portraits of architect Michael Squire at his offices in central London. As always the brief was tight as was time, but that's where prior planning is essential.
RAC Club Magazine
Earlier this year I had the pleasure of being asked by RAC Club Magazine to photograph three classic cars and their modern counterparts. The cars were Fiat 500, Porsche 911 and Land Rover, they were all beautiful cars and I was a very jealous photographer! You can read the full article and see more owners and their cars on the link here.
The many faces of Jenny Eclair
Here are a selection of images from my shoot with Jenny Eclair, not only great fun with an amazing house but lives just round the corner from me, who knew!
Charlie Mullins | Pimlico Plumber
My blog posting has been very quite due to a heavy workload but I've decided to start 2013 with the cover shot and part of the article on Charlie Mullins, the founder of Pimlico Plumbers, for Sage Solutions business magazine.
Charlie was a lovely guy and while we got ready for the cover shot he stood chatting with a cuppa, it made for a great shot!
The article layout gives a behind the scenes look at my lighting set up for this shoot. As you can see power is always an issue when shooting on location and I use a lot of Elinchrom Ranger and Quadra gear with various modifiers.
