I did one of these a while ago for New York and I thought 'why not Paris too?' I've just created a book of Sicilian people but we've not long visited Paris. So this is a selection of images from a few visits, mainly Montmartre, La Défense, and the Saint-Ouen area including La [...]
As ever travel is about photography for me and our recent visit to Sicily started at Penny's new house near Menfi! These shots were all taken over a couple of days on our stay at Menfi, quite a few were taken at breakfast, the light was fantastic. My go-to camera the Nikon D810 [...]
Setting up studio in the Devon County Agricultural Association at Westpoint near Exeter we recently shot a series of relaxed studio headshots followed by some relaxed conversational headshots taken outdoors. With a team of around ten members this is an intrusive way of ensuring an organisation can present a strong and professional image [...]
We've all got our own learning styles but one great way to learn photography is by doing. Aaliyah joined me recently to gain a greater understanding of the world of photography. Studying journalism in London but with specific photography modules to complete she was able to gain a better understanding of studio work and then [...]

Setting Up A Location Studio Whilst great portraits [...]
Not all of our photography is undertaken in our own Southernhay studio in central, Exeter; sometimes we nip across the road and shoot on other people's places. This was the case recently when we visited Begbies Traynor to photograph three of the team using their offices as a backdrop. Working to the company's defined brand [...]
Just a quickie. It's prom season and I don't know about you but, we didn't have this pressure in my day. My daughter has gone from being the little girl who would do anything to be in front of the camera to being the young woman who would do anything not to be in front [...]
