This week: I’m on the road again, heading back from shooting portraits for business. Swapping the chilly outdoors for the comfort of a warm office, this was a really nice little 2-hour commission, creating some basic portraits for a business in Surrey. Some quick links to things mentioned in this show: Nikon D3 SLR Nikon […]
This week: I’m bringing you my third and final recording made live at this year’s Goodwood Festival Of Speed. On this particular occasion, I’m heading out into the motorsport paddock one blustery evening, to see what striking images I can get with a very simple setup – one camera, one super-wideangle lens and a tripod. […]
This week: I’m heading back from the Goodwood Festival Of Speed, sharing a few thoughts about this year’s motoring event. With fast-paced cars, motorbikes, extreme sports, display stands and more, it was a busy few days under commission from Goodwood once again, so my view of the event was a somewhat hectic one. Some quick […]

These recordings would stretch out for weeks if I included just 1 or 2 in each weekly podcast, so I’ve compiled them into a series of six 40-minute(ish) ‘Focus Extra’ shows for you.

This week: I’m heading out at the end of the day, to capture some striking new images for my website and portfolio. Twilight is a fantastictic time of day, but brings its own set of technical considerations where photography is concerned. Taking a stroll around a local marina, I discuss what is in front of […]
This week: It’s another look into the considerations surrounding one of my latest shoots. This one had it all – colour, fun and context. The great thing about photographing kids when they’re engrossed in an activity is that the shots look really natural. Working with natural light means I can move around freely, capturing a […]
This week: I’m taking a few minutes to think back to where it all began… Some time ago, my late Grandparents’ house was sold. A few days before contracts were exchanged, I took the opportunity to take one last look at the house – specifically the room which, for a while, saw some of my […]
This week: I’m following up on last week’s location recording, unpacking my kit bags afer a second shoot for the same client. Just what is involved in photographing a conference? What equipment do you need… and what can you do without? Are you mad on a mountain bike, here in the UK? Do you go […]
