EYES

Some recent shots from time in the studio left to my own devises.

A few snap shots from my recent trip to London! 

As you can see, in comparison to the previously up loaded version of this image I have re-edited this image as I have with the rest, although I am not going to up load the rest of the final edits, you will have to wait till I have loaded them on to my website. 

Kebabery

Went out to photograph in Truro town centre, got peckish so went and got some chips from the kebab shop, these two legends spotted that we had cameras and were adamant on posing for a photo so like the friendly photographer i obliged! 

Couple of legends!!! 

This is the start of a series of images I aim to carry on adding to over time. 

I shot the images in the studio using a Hasselblad camera with digital back, using colour gels to get the different colour backgrounds.

I took these photos of the bins because I liked the lighting and the irony in the fact that the bins are there but the rubbish is on the floor.

Old school bike in the centre of Truro. Shot at about midnight.

These two portraits were shot using only the available street lighting and light from christmas lights in the street. 

Frank organized a charity gig at bar200 and raised £580 for the charity "send a cow" 

with many thanks to Barkleys bank who matched the money raised!

The top image is of the amazing Tom Weeks whos current solo project seems VERY worth wile as his set was AMAZING!! if you get the to see him....DO!!

Got a phone call from Kirstin sying the surf was good so went along and took some shots. 

Kirstin was nice enough to lend me his Canon 5D mk2 with a 400mm prime L lens.  

This was a shot I took on my work experience with Kirstin Prisk

it got published in the Western Morning News.

These are some shots taken for my blue gym project, battled against the wind and rain but everyone lived so it was all good!!!

got lent a car mount...so we went and had some fun, 

static shots photoshoped with moving shots, fun times indeed!!!!!

so we got some flash's out and had a play, this is the end result of us going out for a "serious" shoot boys and toys = play time!!
