Light Night

Light Night

Reading Time: 2 minutes An event I always try and get to is the annual Night Light in Leeds, where various art installations and projections take over the city.  I was all set to be really organised this year and plot a sensible path through the events, especially as 

Ela Orleans at Wharf Chambers

Ela Orleans at Wharf Chambers

Reading Time: 3 minutes I was invited down to this lovely intimate gig at Wharf Chambers to shoot a set of images capturing the night. Something a little more chilled than many of the events I shoot for this project – I almost didn’t include it on this site, 

Hyde Park Unity Day

Hyde Park Unity Day

Reading Time: 2 minutes I’ve been ridiculously busy recently, rearranging and redecorating my house, so not had a lot of time to either shoot, or even get things on the site. But, slightly delayed, here are a few recent shots. Each year I try and do some shooting for

Reading Time: 2 minutes Took my self and my kit down to the warm up party for this year’s Unity Day for a few beers and some shooting. Here’s a few shots from the night.

Uncle Bob

Uncle Bob

Reading Time: 2 minutes …I was an ‘Uncle Bob’ – as those in the wedding trade call the family member with a good camera.

But a bit of a challenge it was, as I had the small toddler in tow…

Waterfront Festival

Reading Time: < 1 minutes This event takes place in Leeds on the waterfront each year. I’ve been to this event a few times, and there’s not a lot more to shoot that I haven’t already, but I did take a nice panorama of Leeds Dock.

Temple Works

Temple Works

Reading Time: 2 minutes …designed by Joseph Bonomi the Younger and built by John Marshall between 1836 and 1840, it boasts a two acre main space, and apparently is pretty unique (at least for the time) in that it is held up under both compression and tension.

Photocamp 2013

Reading Time: 6 minutes It’s been a busy weekend here. I must confess I was a little apprehensive about all this. Not really by choice, but simply because I haven’t really found many people as obsessed as I am with taking pictures , much of my photography has been 

The Wedding

The Wedding

Reading Time: 4 minutes ‘Don’t do it’, they all say… ‘Shooting a wedding for a fried or family member is a baaaaad idea.’ Of course many photographers would love the chance to jump in and shoot a wedding – for may it is seen as a surefire way to
