Going Live
Its done. Finally. After toying, considering, debating and mulling, I tentatively picked up the phone yesterday and registered myself with Mr Tax man. I am officially a business!! (for anyone in the UK reading this and is considering doing the same. Call them direct, rather than trying to wade through the HMRC website they [...]
Wee peeps & Kiddie winks
An area of photography I have failed to spend much time on since last year, is children and baby portraits. I did have a couple of goes last year but found it very difficult. Primarily because I had only just started venturing away from my safety blanket of landscape photography. I hadn’t a clue on [...]
From the pocket
Just recieved my first canvass print. Delivered to my door by the owner, on his day off. Thats commitment! I was never sure that canvas would work with my style of photography. But as i am learning, you never know the true answer to something until you have experienced, or tried it yourself. Im really [...]
Opportunities
Today saw an opportunity to try my hand at photographing an event in a large crowd. Its something I have waited to try for sometime, to A, see if i’m confident enough, and B, see if i’m any good at it. Being a photographer in large crowded places presents its own set of unique problems. [...]
Whats it all About
On and off for the last few blogs I have been talking about the change I am experiencing with what was originally just a means to becoming my own boss, by doing something I love. And I have noticed that I am increasingly talking about how I am changing my outlook on life, and what [...]

Despite been absolutely knackered after working two six day weeks with a few photo shoots scattered in between, I was once again up at 4 am to go shoot some seascapes.

From the pocket
This morning was my first seascape shoot in nearly 3 months. For 6 of those weeks my lens has been in repair, but Iv been so caught up in new ventures that seascapes went on the back burner a little. However this morning I made a point of getting up at silly o’clock to make [...]
Momentum
Im not really sure what this blog is going to be about as I start writing. I just feel compelled to put pen to paper and see what comes out, so here goes. I have spent a little time reflecting on this “journey” of mine recently, and I am only just starting to realise just [...]
From The Pocket
These two radio towers sit proudly on top of Firle Beacon. Visible from absolutely miles around, I can remember seeing these things from a very young age when driving past Lewes on the A27 (I wasn’t driving!). I went for a high contrast B&W shot as I wanted to try and bring out the detail [...]
My First Time
This is a fairly lengthy blog post, but I wanted to document one of my more important shoots of the last couple of years. What a day. As I start penning this, its way to early on a dreary sunday morning as I commute to another day in the trenches at work. I’m shattered, seriously [...]
