I recently had the pleasure of being to be invited to the Exeter based restaurant, Lloyds Kitchen, to photograph and taste some dished for their new menu and what a fantastic menu it was too! I knew of Lloyds by reputation but until now, I had never eaten there. If you haven't been, I highly recommend them - the food was amazing and beautifully presented. Lloyds is open for breakfast and lunch 7 days a week and open for dinner on a Friday and Saturday evening. Booking is reco

We photographers rarely get on the other side of our cameras willingly, so I was flattered when another photographer asked me to take her portrait. Its always quite a daunting thing, to photograph a photographer. On one hand, is wonderfully flattering that another photographer admires and enjoys your work, while on the other hand, you feel that your work may by under much harder scrutiny (even through it isn't)! Caitlin isn't the first photographer that I have had the pleasur

I had the pleasure of photographing the first collection for a new boutique in Sidmouth, Pure Indulgence. Run by a mother and daughter team, they offer a beautiful collectionof clothing made from the softest fabrics. If you're in Sidmouth, stop by their boutique and have a look!

Not every shoot goes exactly to plan and this shoot was one of them! The idea had been to shoot in the softer light of late afternoon, with the forecast saying clear skies and sunshine. The forecast was wrong. It was bleak, grey and overcast and even rained, not heavy rain, just that fine, dense drizzle that gets you soaked through before you even realise its raining - you wouldn't know it had been really sunny all day until this point! Oh, and there was a huge event on nearb

A few headshots with Katie... This was a really simple one light set up with an octabox to provide a soft and even light. #headshot #portraiture #portrait #portraits #blonde #woman #studio #commercial

My last shoot of 2016 was with the lovely Cathleen (Cat) Voysey. Cat contacted me to help her with some commercial images for her portfolio before she heads off travelling for a few months. We chose to shoot around the quayside in Exeter as the location suited us both and there was ample shelter if there was rain. The weather was awful that day - it was so damp and misty, you could see 20ft in front of you but it created a fantastic atmosphere. About 10 minutes before Cat arr

As I normally work on location with natural light, its quite a change to work on a beauty shoot with a studio set up, so I was looking forward to this shoot. I've worked with both Gaby and Kasia a number of times now to know that they are both very talented and make a great team. There were 2 looks to this shoot, all shot with a single studio light. I also shot theathered so that we could see images on a larger screen quickly and to make it easier for Kasia (our make up art

As you will have seen from previous blog posts, I work with the lovely Charlotte for her Fashion & Fitness Blog, Fit4Fashion. Here are some images from our last set. This was all focussed on sports wear from Missguided and how to motivate yourself throughout the winter months to excercise. It was a bitterly cold day and we shot right on the coast with the wind coming in right off the sea so we had to work fast. As usual, Charlotte did an amazing job! You can read her blo

I love Christmas, its such a pretty time of the year with all of the lights and decorations, so Emily and I decided to make the most of this on or last shoot. We shot around Exeter and even did a few after dark in a coffeeshop which looked really atmospheric! Have a look at what we shot below.

I love bridal editorials, they have to be one of my favourite things to shoot and this time, we shot at a derelict location! The whole shoot was shot with natural light, which was quite difficult in some parts of the location. I feel that this makes images softer and more dreamy and romantic so I always prefer to work this way.

I recently had the pleasure of photographing Devon based illustrator, Natalia Moore. Natalia is so talented and creative - her work is amazing so it was an absolute privilege to be asked to take her photograph. The images will be popping up all over the place, on her website, social media and maybe even in one of her books! You can view Natalia's work over on her website: Natalia Moore Illustration and on her Facebook Page too. Its always lovely to receive such nice feedback

Photoshoots can be quite a daunting thought, but it doesn't need to be a daunting experience! Here are a few tips to help guide you through and make the most of your shoot. PICK YOUR LOCATION Firstly, pick where you would like to shoot. I always work on location (unless previously arranged) and work with natural light as much as possible. Do you prefer natural or urban areas? Is there somewhere special to you that you would particularly like to use for your shoot? Discus the

Yesterday I had the pleasure of photographing the opening ceremony of the new clubhouse for Stoke Gabriel's Boating Association, the SGBA. What a fantastic building with amazing views across the river Dart! A large proportion of building was funded by Sport England as well as several grants from charitable trusts, not to mention the thousands of hours and months of hard work by a dedicated SGBA members. The building design itself is quite fascinating. The lover follow of the
