This week: I’m in my office, talking through the pictures from a recent photo shoot. Last week, I walked you through the kit used during a recent multi-location shoot. Well, as promised, you now join me as I sit at my computer, reviewing all of the images which were submitted to the client in order for them […]
This week: I’m talking about the kit used during a day-long photo shoot earlier this week. The photography here was for one of my Outdoor Impact package clients, and involved a day spent moving, non-stop, between locations here on the south coast. For this reason, I had to travel relatively lightly, whilst at the same time […]
This week: You join me down by the water, shooting client product pictures. On this occasion day, my setup is very simple – essentially one camera, one lens and a tripod. I also employ my iPhone in order to conveniently capture some time-lapse for social media purposes. And as you’ll hear, it was probably just […]
This week: I’m talking about process of storytelling in photography. It’s National Storytelling Week and as you might imagine, this is music to my ears because, well, that’s what my whole business as a photographer is all about! In this week’s show, I’m sharing a few thoughts about how we use pictures to tell stories – and how […]
This week: I’m talking about giving myself a break – in all senses of the word. I’ve given this week’s show over to a topic which many folks in the creative industries often shy away from. Certainly, you don’t tend to hear many professionals talking about it – which I think gives a false impression to […]
This week: I’m talking about a recent music-themed photo shoot. As you know, most of what I share concerns outdoors activities – but I do cover a variety of other subjects along the way, too. Once again, I was recently asked to shoot some music promo pictures. And as before, working with the same client, it […]
This week: I’m photographing more outdoor footwear using an improvised studio setup. As promised, this week’s podcast is a continuation of last week’s theme – that is, photography of outdoor footwear in an improvised studio setup. Just to quick recap, then… Over the past few weeks, I received a number of deliveries from various outdoor brands, covering […]
This week: I’m photographing outdoor footwear using an improvised studio setup. Over the past few weeks, I’ve received a number of deliveries from various outdoor brands, covering everything from tents to clothing. All of these are destined for the Test/Review treatment and, of course, in each case I need product shots to illustrate the write-ups. Of […]
This week: I’m talking you through a series of magazine feature pictures as I shoot them. If you look at the current edition of Camping Magazine here in the UK, you’ll see a couple of articles by me. One is a camping trip feature, whilst the other is a ‘how-to’ technique piece about tying knots. Well, […]
This week: I’m thinking about camera choice vs intended usage. Whilst I was filming and shooting at the Mind Over Mountains event in the Lake District a while back, I had a really nice chat with one of the attendees about camera choice. In many ways, it was a quite typical conversation, but what was interesting […]
This week: I’m talking through camera gear selection ahead of a camping trip. We all know that kit selection is a personal thing; what works for one person may not necessarily work for another. And, as I’ve said many times, my own choices are constantly evolving and even open to last-minute alterations at the packing stage. […]
This week: I’m talking about my trip to this year’s Outdoor Trade Show. Once again, I recently headed off to this yearly event which gives me a great opportunity to see many of the latest developments in the outdoors world and catch up with colleagues. As ever, I had a great, productive time – and in […]
