I took a picture the other day and thought it was cool enough to use to promote our Tattoo portraiture. Sometimes when you get so immersed in the art, the judgement goes out the window. You see, in my eagerness, I posted the image on Facebook and they took offense and promptly pulled it down. [...]

Please this year, no Mankinis or fluffy handcuffs. No see through Red Lingerie or anything with a bunny on it. Please, let’s not do practical either…. No cookery or DIY books. This is, after all, a celebration of love we’re talking about. Put a little effort into your gift, give it some thought, personalise it [...]

We started with the Engagement Shoot… It was at Granary Wharf in Leeds. I think we all had fun that day so we decided to continue the shoot another day at my base in Rawdon. I’ve often said that I have the best couples in the world and it’s true, I’m very lucky, but I [...]

The ‘Intimates’ range of portraiture was initially suggested by the mother of a bride who saw what I did for her daughter and asked if I could create something to make her feel good about herself again. Together, we created ‘Intimates’ Sexy photoshoots in the style of Agent Provocateur rather than Ann Summers. Upmarket fashion [...]

OK, I’ve had such a great response to our FETASIA LATEX shoot on Monday that I thought I’d share the finished edits with you… Our brief was to shoot some great images of Dix and Leafie’s Latex designs. Lawnswood Cemetary was the chosen location. It’s beautiful, historic and relatively quiet. Our models for the day [...]

He’s done it again… Photographers and hairstylists often have difficult relationships on shoots. Photographers love nothing better than to shoot pictures and think that hairstylists take far too long faffing. (How difficult can it be to curl a bit of hair for Pete’s sake?) Hairstylists love creating wonderful gravity defying structures and don’t mind how [...]

Remember those Marlborough Country ads, back in the day when tobacco companies could advertise on the telly? They knew cigarettes would kill you but they spent vast fortunes dressing up their products to make them look sexy and desirable. Wow, some of those ads looked so good I wanted to rush out and fill my [...]

I’ve mentioned before that I’ve wanted to shoot beautiful Tattoo pictures for ages. The amount of effort that goes into creating great tattoos should really be rewarded with fabulous images and that’s what I set out to do. Gradually I’ve been getting more and more enquiries to take portraits with body art and so now [...]

Something I’ve been meaning to do for a long time is to shoot some portraits in the style of Californian photographer Robert Alvarado. He has a great way with lighting and his finish is flawless. To copy someone’s style is difficult and also rather pointless, but to be influenced by someone’s style is another matter. [...]
