New Kreepsville 666 campaign.

The above poster is the first of a series I recently shot with horror-inspired cult brand Kreepsville 666 (you might have seen their "I [anatomical heart] monsters" tote bags being carried around by everyone from stylish rockers through to kitsch fashionistas). As ever, they chose us a great location (and old castle in Aberdeen) and brought in great models.

You can check out the new range at their website.  Or visit the fashion section of my portfolio to check out some of the photographs I took of their new 'rest in peace' jewellery range.

Lal Hardy Cover feature for Tattoo Master

Last month I was invited to visit legendary tattooist Lal Hardy at his studio to shoot a several page feature and cover image for Tattoo Master. If you are involved in tattooing you will already know Lal and his work, for those of you who are not, you may recognise him from the popular TV show London Ink. When we arrived at the studio we were greeted with a warm welcome and a cup of tea (note: this is always a good way to get in my good books ;). Lal himself was very accomodating and a pleasure to shoot, as you can see from the below image, his faithful pet also wanted to get in on the excitement.

Wedding feature in Photopro magazine

Phew, I'm back from shooting another music festival and the latest Photopro magazine had dropped on my doormat. A while ago I did an interview with them about my Wedding work and how it fits in with my other work (people are often suprised to hear I enjoy shooting Weddings). So thanks again to Photopro for taking the time to interview me, and thanks too Craig & Michelle and Ash & Michelle for letting me use the photos from their weddings in the feature.

100 Models in one afternoon

Things have been hectic here - I've several shoots which I am itching to share with you, but have to wait until they have been published first.

Last week I was asked to shoot 50 models as part of a casting for the big-name client of a big-name photographer (yes, it's all very hush-hush til the campaign is live, but that's how it is). It turned out that someone got a litte over-zealous with sending us models.... we ended up having 100 girls to cast. Double what we expected. We had one arrive late, but where's the fun in only shooting 99 models when 100 sounds so much better? Of course we squeezed the last model in before packing up.

An interesting challenge, but one I am very pleased to say we met without breaking a sweat. By running a tight ship we were able to do the full casting and review the images with the client on-site, all in time to get home before the sun started to set!

To give you an idea of the scale, the above image is a contact sheet of 50 images. We shot twice as many girls as in the image (each girl in various poses too).

Winner : UK Tattoo Industry Best Photographer 2010.

I was working at a convention on Sunday when I was told that I had won the UK tattoo industry 'Best Tattoo Photographer 2010'. I was honoured to be on the shortlist, but to have had the majority share of the public vote is even cooler. So if you are reading this and you voted for me, thank you very much, this does mean a lot to me!
