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.

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.

Goodwood's 79th Members Meeting

A little behind the scenes from the Goodwood 79th Members meeting. I was so excited about attending this event. As a members only event I was expecting a more relaxed vibe than the Goodwood FOS and Revival. This meant more opportunity to photograph in a more ‘chilled out’ environment, a chance to see the event and have a great weekend! I was attending the event as a spectator, but for me, that is when I feel most creative, I see the characters in people when they are so focused on the race, that is what I enjoy capturing ‘What you don’t see’…

Finding new tracks with Herald Motor Company and Jake Baggaley

A super early start to a location close to home to meet friend and fellow photographer Jake Baggaley. After recently receiving a Herald Maverick 125 CC from the great team at Herald Motor Company, Jake was soon to get in touch with me about an idea for a Moto shoot! So we met on the hills close to my home in Dorset and made it just in time for a perfect golden sunrise.

The London Convoy

After being involved with Twisted for several years, I was excited to be invited to create new content photography for the launch of Twisted London.

Malle Mile 2021

No longer in London this year but Grimsthorpe Castle still proved to be a great location to host the Malle Mile 2021…. I didn’t want to capture to much at this event but have some fun and enjoy the event. Here is what I photographed!

Goodwood FOS with Team Penske

This years Goodwood Festival of Speed was dedicated to American Motorsport legend Roger Penske. I was introduced to Roger through Nick Goozee who invited me to photograph Team Penske at this years Goodwood FOS.

“Penske’s attendance comes as the event celebrates “The Maestros – Motorsport’s Great All-Rounders”, a theme consistently exemplified by Roger Penske and his race teams. As a driver, Penske enjoyed success on both sides of the Atlantic, winning in NASCAR and making it to Formula 1. But ‘The Captain’ is perhaps best known as the leader of Team Penske, having achieved unprecedented success across a number of motorsport disciplines, including INDYCAR, NASCAR, Trans-Am, sports cars, Australian Supercars and Formula 1.” ~ Goodwood.com

The Goozée Garage...

Nick Goozée has been a family friend for a long time. With similar interests in photography and cars, I have spent a good amount of time with Nick in Dorset, learning and admiring the stories he has told and his wise knowledge that I am yet to experience.

‘Tucked away in his garage is XK140 Jaguar - a car that inspired the beginnings of Nicks motorsport career. Nicks grandfather, Harold Goozée, was a racing enthusiast and lifelong admirer of Coventry built machinery. He competed in Scottish tours, the RAC Rally and more. There was a number own cars owned by Harold Goozée but one that had stuck in Nicks memory was a battleship grey XK140 fixed head coupé that had been purchased on 26th October 1956. “He didn’t believe in cleaning it at all” Nick said.

Nick fell in love with motorsport after his grandfather took him to the races at Crystal Palace. The first race Nick attended was Easter Monday at Goodwood, “I was the tea maker”. Nick eventually began his career with Roger Penske, becoming the teams general manager in 1983 and the managing director five years later!

During Nicks period away working, the Jaguar XK140 was passed down to his father and then later in 1988, the Jaguar became Nicks. Nick then made the decision to send it away and give it some love and care and returned to Nick in 1994 and has been beautifully looked after ever since.’

I finally got the chance to photograph Nick and his pride and joy after he was approached by Classic Car magazine. I was invited on the photoshoot not far from either of our homes in Dorset. More details of Nicks Jaguar XK140 can be found in the latest edition of Classic Car magazine.

The full fit-out

Another ‘behind the scenes’ maritime video of a recent fit out that took place for my regular content creation clients at Saltwater HQ. Last month we helped our friends at @the_boat_club with a full new fit–out of a @yamahamarineeu 175hp on their @zodiacribs!

Content Creation with Herald Motor Company

I met the team at Herald Motor Company last year at the Malle Mile where I got the chance to test out the Herald Maverick. A year later I got back in touch as I was super excited about creating a series of lifestyle content with a collaboration with my Defender and MotoTote Carriers. Based in the Dorset countryside, I headed back to one of my favourite shooting locations to get a series of track and trail photographs as well as a short film - filmed by Max Bartholomew

Kicking up the dirt at the Malle Mile

So the Malle Mile was something else! An incredible, dusty weekend photographing at my first @mallelondon - Definitely one I will be returning too and a good opportunity to catch up with fellow photographers. Also a massive thanks to the guys at @heraldmotorco for introducing me to their range of bikes, I thought I was set on a bike until I sat on the Herald Scrambler! See you on the start line…
