Hello! - welcome to my blog....I am very lucky to have a job I love,

meeting new people every day, and traveling around the country

with my trusty camera (well actually more than just a camera!)

and here are some of my stories and the shoots I have done......

   

 

Hanging out of a car for The Sun

November 01, 2016  •  Leave a Comment

Had fun on a recent shoot which involved lots of hanging out of a moving car to take my pics!

The commission was for The Sun and their Motors page, and we spent a morning at a park in South Yorkshire snapping the new rather lovely VW Tiguan.

After persuading a chap to drive me at speed in front of the Tiguan, on a private road of course, I managed to squeeze out of the back window for some nice panning shots.

Then we found a rural road shut off for roadworks - for some traffic free shots from road level.

Here are a few of the pics.

Our family of urban fox cubs who have just woken up and made an appearance in the garden.

Only spotted them once so far but they disappeared that day as I grabbed my camera.

Three cubs spotted, there were five last year.

Latest celebrity photoshoot

May 06, 2015  •  Leave a Comment

I met the hottest new celebrity last week - 'Princess' the Hypnodog from ITV's Britain's Got Talent!

What a fun afternoon with Princess and owner Krystyna, and The Sun's willing volunteers, who turned up to try out the hypnotic skills of Krystyna and Princess.

I managed to keep very awake fortunately and concentrate on the photography!

A nice spread in The Sun followed.
