Sight Seeing

Excited to share my latest editorial, "Sightseeing," published in Vigour Magazine! 🗞️✨

This project was a dream come to life—a fashion shoot blending rustic charm and urban sophistication. Sightseeing tells the story of a country girl exploring London, brought to life through stunning Hector Maclean designs. The juxtaposition of countryside-inspired fashion against the vibrant cityscape creates a narrative that's both timeless and modern.

I'm incredibly grateful to have collaborated with a fantastic team who made this vision a reality. Check it out in the latest issue of Vigour Magazine!

The Windy Boats 29 Huracán Content Lifestyle Photography

A recent lifestyle commission with Windy Boats and Saltwater Solutions. We went out on the water along the Jurassic Coastline for the latest delivery of the Windy Boats 29 Huracán. This particular Windy has been developed as a modern looking sport cruiser combining a spacious, safe and social cockpit and looks stunning on the water, all the features we aimed to capture for this latest content shoot. 

Fly Fishing with Marina Gibson and Weber UK

A day with Weber UK means great food and great stories. I have been photographing the Weber chefs spend a day with fly fishing queen, Marina Gibson. It is incredibly satisfying to see the excitement that fishing brings to people. Documenting the whole narrative throughout the day, from lake to lunch! We were fortunate to be in the company of some amazing chefs: @melissafood @jonrfinch @huntergathercook @tbone_chops @danielcooperbbq

We enjoyed a variety of dishes, from cold-smoked trout fajitas to grilled trout and salads, making it one helluva feast next to Longstock lake on the @leckfordestate.

Capturing the lifestyle elements of the day in the form of stills and film with the Canon R5 and the RF 24mm - 70mm lens. The aim of this short film was to capture the journey of the day at Leckford Estate with Marina’s guidance and the joy that comes from good food, good grills and good company. Short film to be released soon.

OFFICIAL PHOTOGRAPHER at this years, The Game Fair

The Game Fair Official Photographer! Documenting 2 years of The Game Fair at Ragley Hall, Warwickshire and Blenheim Palace. After being approached for my photographic style I couldn’t wait to capture the atmosphere. With a mix of country brands, off road experiences and Horse and Hounds I couldn’t think of a better event to be involved with. Using the Canon R5 and the 24mm - 70mm lens and 50mm lens, I was able to capture outdoor lifestyle and the whole event. I wanted to try something different than the usual ‘event photography’. With each of the fashion brands I wanted to try a ‘staged’ styled set up, modelled by the company representatives or owners and really capture each brands image which a wide angle lens was suitable for.

Thank you to Coate PR, it was great to be working with the team.

Filming in the Outdoors with Presenter Lizzie Daly

It has been an exciting week in North Wales capturing new and exciting outdoor content for Lizzy Daly's new project 'EVOLVED'. This project is about encourage people to gain confidence in the outdoors, from being self sufficient in the mountains and at sea to building confidence in different habitats and environments. It has been a three day successful shoot and plenty of belly laughs. From mountains to coasts, all in beautiful grey grey skies and sideways rain but we made every shoot day count.

Photography Test Shoot Titled 'Bad News"

In the heart of a rural landscape In Dorset, the atmosphere is charged with a timely energy for the fashion photoshoot titled "Bad News." The narrative unfolds against a backdrop of flat, browned meadow and dead trees abandoned amongst reeds. The setting mirrors a juxtaposition of an independent woman and elegance, creating a story that challenges conventional rebellious norms of what a woman is capable of when left on her own.

The fashion photoshoot took place in Dorset. It went a little differently to what I had thought it would turn out but we adapted, we analysed the environment. The aim of this test shoot was to focus on a single image and understanding what the story was saying in each shot. I also wanted to start the year off experimenting with lighting and how to balance this with the natural light. During winter natural light becomes quite harsh quite quickly and is usually quite a challenge to work with. It was overcome with a Profoto A10 off camera and a reflector to soften the light. Using the Canon R5 and 1.2 50mm Lens

Vegas Baby!

I got to embark on an exhilarating journey with 16K Agency as I dived into another Grand Prix, this time in Las Vegas. This content creation project aimed to document the raw energy, intense competition, and vibrant atmosphere surrounding the Grand Prix through the lens of captivating photography.

Beyond the track, the project also peeled back the curtain to reveal the behind-the-scenes world of the Grand Prix. Candid shots of pit crews, mechanics at work, and drivers in preparation will provide a holistic view of the dedication and teamwork required for success in the racing world. The brief was to capture guest and experiences faced during the premium experience of the Formula 1 Las Vegas. It is about a celebration that brings together fans from around the world. My photographs captured the passion and enthusiasm of the crowd, emphasised the shared excitement that filled atmosphere.

Drgnfly Dorchester, Now Open!

In my recent indoor photoshoot at the newly opened Drgnfly situated in Brewery Square, Dorset, I aimed to capture the essence of the culinary experience and the Pan Asian elegant design. In each image I aimed to bring the ambiance and flavors of the Drgnfly to life.

The play of ambient lighting was a bit of a struggle especially as I was unable to use flash in order to not disturb the customers. This was overcome with adjusting the white balance and retaining the stability of how I was taking each image. High ISO and post production was also a big factor in getting this cooler for the Drgnfly aesthetic. Carefully selected angles allowed me to showcase the unique personality of the restaurant, also showcasing the finer details that created a sense of Asia. From the warm hues of the dining area to the subtle highlights on delectable dishes, every detail was meticulously considered to convey the inviting atmosphere of the venue.

I focused not only on the food but also on the moments shared within the restaurant's walls. Candid shots of diners engrossed in conversation, the skillful choreography of kitchen staff, and the interplay of shadows and reflections all contribute to a narrative that goes beyond the plate. Each photograph is a visual tale, telling the story of a culinary journey and the emotions it evokes.

My approach to this photoshoot was to bring this new restaurant to life and to allow the Drgnfly to present a visual experience that goes beyond the palate. The images capture the interplay of textures, colors, and aromas, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the sensorial experience of the restaurant.

Getting cosy on set shooting Kahuku Autumn Winter Campaign

A lifestyle photography shoot located at Sculptures By The Lakes in Dorset. Kahuku is a footwear brand designed in Hawaii however, came to me looking for an Autumn/Winter campaign. The goal was to keep the ‘Aloha spirit’ in mind but also show off their outdoor / indoor durability. I wanted to evoke feelings of relaxation and tranquility in the narrative of the photoshoot. I produced a series of lifestyle photography and 3 brand reels of different outdoor/indoor scenarios.

Creativity in the Bath.. Fashion photoshoot with model Jessy Cowgirl

A creative moment on the farm with Jessy Cowgirl. This was a test shoot and a creative day with upcoming fashion model Jessy Cowgirl. I met Jessy on a commission for Sara Tiara and couldn’t wait to work with her again. Jessy already informed me of her families Taxidermy collection so we both wanted to factor this in the shoot. I wanted to created a series out of the ordinary but also wanted to reflect Jessy and keeping it natural to reflect her.

I used 2 x B10 Profoto lights to fill in the areas of the bathroom the natural light didn’t hit. The Canon R5 and 50mm was also great in lower light. Placing taxidermy around the bath tub juxtaposed the real life dog and made an interesting composition. What is real and what is stuffed?…

Behind the Scenes of the Shackleton SS23 Shoot

It was a great achievement to be given the opportunity by Shackleton to photograph their SS23 campaign. Shackleton required UK / Dorset content using my Landrover Defender and a range of Shackleton outerwear. The focus would be keeping the ‘luxury’, ‘gentleman’ connotation that Shackleton has built within the outdoor range but adding the ‘adventure’ and ‘endurance’ element to the story.

A two day lifestyle content photoshoot was created, delivering a selection of engaging lifestyle, luxury imagery to bring the collection to life. This included a mixture of natural storytelling from real life adventures and close ups of manufacturing and craftmanship. A mixture of outdoor scenarios and coastal adventures to show off the elements of outdoor wear.

The shoot is to took place in a range of locations around Dorset and aims to tell the story of a gentleman finding his clarity before the working day begins. The shoot began at sunrise travelling via WINDY boats to Old Harry Rocks, an iconic destination using navigation and skills to tell the narrative and visually indicate how the outdoor range can support this type of adventure and environment.

I was using the Canon RF 50mm with the Canon R5 for the first time and I can honestly say, what an improvement to the quality of my work! Here are some behind the scene photographs shot by @cycletog

The Pale Mountains: Dolomites Content Trip

A 3 day trip to the mountains! Myself and Amy Balch Artist took the opportunity to head to the Dolomites for a content creation adventure. Travelling into Cortina, we spent three days hiking different mountain ranges and hot spots. I’ve never seen views quite like it… A lot of lifestyle photography, adventure and discovering a new place!

I titled our project The Pale Mountains, and now after returning from the Dolomites, I can now see why! It was May, the ski season had just finished and summer had not yet started. We stayed in a small town called Cortina which was beautiful but also felt deserted this time of year. Neither of us had any idea what to expect, in fact, we packed shorts and tee shirts! Only to find that snow was still thick and still a bitter wind. One outfit lasted a long time!

The scenery and landscapes were like nothing I have experienced before. We were lost in a postcard and sat by a crystal blue waters of Lago Di Braies simply mesmerised. We also tackled the Tre Cime 500m altitude gain hike, little were we aware of the amount of snow blocking most route paths making it a challenge to complete.

Day 2 we drove South a few miles and came across an unplanned route. It didn’t appear popular but thought it was a good opportunity to explored a more untouched path. It turned out to be a ski path with a ski lift cable guiding us to the top. Once again, a mountain peak layered with snow however, as we had hoped, more incredible views.

We photographed lifestyle content along the way but not heavily focused on capturing unnatural moments. I wanted this to be a ‘real’ visual story of two independent women exploring the Dolomite Mountain Ranges with no experience of the location and surroundings apart from our research to guide us.

CONTENT TRIP: 16th May - 20th May The Dolomites

Photography is an important part of a brands visual identity and I work closely with my clients to capture their brand’s story. For my next content trip, I will be spending 4 days exploring the breath-taking mountain ranges in the Dolomites located in North Eastern Italy with a small creative team. The Dolomites offer some of the most stunning landscapes in the world. We will be driving from Venice to Cortina D’Ampezzo where will be base ourselves for the duration. From there, we have designed a route exploring a variety of landscapes and terrains, capturing some of the most popular viewpoints as well as the hidden gems. I have wanted to explore the Dolomites at this time of year for as long as I can remember. The landscape promises amazing peaks, light and adventurous conditions, and I am excited to create some dramatic stories. With all of the valuable lessons and experience’s I’ve accumulated, this following content opportunity can be a platform for consistency and adaption for creating inspiring content to support your brand. I want to showcase my journey with your products in an active style, that compliments your brand and brings your products to life. In the form of video and stills, the goal is to capture the natural, the believable lifestyle moments and the breath taking views that are faced along the journey. A product test and a true story.

Who Is Involved

Keeping this adventure small and tackling this project in its entirety. I want to make this adventure believable and realistic to portray the story and adventure we are about to face. I will not only be behind the camera but also in front to create the story of two people exploring dramatic rock formations, 3 mountain peaks and several of secret viewpoints for 4 days. The team will provide female leads for this expedition. We come from creative and rural backgrounds with adventurous spirits, uniting to capture this journey that is going to be nothing short of epic.

British Heritage Fashion...

I met Sara Tiara at the Pure London fashion event in London Olympia. I was instantly drawn to her brand and beautiful British Heritage Fashion and designs. We instantly connected and quickly discovered that her workshop is right on my Dorset doorstep! Based in Hampshire, New Forest you can immediately recognise that Sara’s creations are influenced by the enchanting wildlife and nature of her surrounding National Park.

Sara gave me the opportunity to work with her on her next product photography shoot. Specialising in outdoor photography, this project became a new challenge, but one I couldn’t wait to shoot! Testing and experimenting with lighting set ups using 2x Profoto B10’s and an A10 flash made things super simple, yet effective. The brief was to shoot product shots a little differently, instead of clean, white background my thoughts were to make it natural and add organic textures, keeping the appearance of the backdrop and hanging linen sheets. I think this really fitted with Sara Tiara’s brand image and sustainable fashion principles.

“Sara’s unique creations embody first and foremost the principles of British heritage fashion combined with slow fashion. Her signature garments in Harris Tweed finished with exclusively designed silk lining are inspired by both the countryside and by metropolitan, avant-garde and historical influences, bringing a quintessentially British style to life. Her finely handmade hats and headpieces range from opulent, dramatic one of a kind creations to more subtly elegant, ready to wear pieces.”

Dryrobe's recent partnership with GB Rowing

British Rowing is responsible for the development of rowing in England and the training and selection of rowers to represent Great Britain 🇬🇧⁠ I had the pleasure and great opportunity from Dryrobe to film and capture content photography to announce the launch of this partnership.

It was great spending time to discover how the GB Olympic and Paralympic teams train, prepare and for me to hear these athlete’s aspirations. I wanted to film this short interview to give a ‘real’ sense of what goes on during training and the day to day of these athletes. There was a very strong element of ‘team’ during this training session, and I wanted to ensure I captured this.

Braving it all. The Silverstone Pomeroy Trophy Photography

“Being first is never easy, a fact known all to well by those who brave the first race of the season on Feb 25th. Notorious for its unpredictability, the weekend weather never disappoints and offers some of the most epic backdrops and racing of the year ahead.” ~ Hoodpin

Working with Hoodpin for the first Silverstone event of the season, the Silverstone Pomeroy Trophy draws out some of the most devoted and enthusiastic racers. “With its long-standing reputation for capricious weather and biting cold, this event showcases true grit and determination.” An excellent opportunity to capture some great storytelling, the grandstands are empty and the sky is usually grey. It is also a very varied mix of cars and characters to start off the season!

It was a day of several different races with a full mix of characters and actions within the paddock and on track. I was a very interesting, yet chilly photography commission to start the race season.

SW1 Street style

SW1 Street style with actor, singer, model, Arteeva.

Test photography shoots are always fun, especially when you want to practice some ideas or just get creative. I was working with Base Models UK in London for this one. I’ve not photographed much street style and I thought shooting in the centre of Pimilco would give us plenty of quiet areas to explore.

My initial plan was to use the private gardens here to have a more ‘outdoors’ vibe and use a model to create a springtime fashion shoot. With some complications, I had to change this plan last minute and use the city environment.

I want to get more into fashion this year so working with Arteeva and Base Models was the perfect opportunity to practice model direction and angles.

Using the Canon R5 and a 35 - 70mm to shoot 3 different scenarios produced a few really pleasing shots. Being winter the light disappeared really quickly that afternoon but we made use of the last few gaps of light.

Low Profiles... Headshots for Solace Global

This turned out to be a very creative project for me. Solace Global, a global security and travel risk management company based in Dorset, asked me to join them in their offices and create a ‘premium look’ series of head shots. These are a few of the results…
