I wanted to make this photograph a little special using digital post production, as I thought that it captured a great little moment. When I took the snap I didn’t see the man’s arm pointing or the two women sat under the umbrella. However when looking through my photographs at the end of the day,…

The Eiffel Tower is certainly the symbol of Paris if not one of the most famous structures in France. This was again taken back in 2005 but hadn’t been published on here until now. At the time Paris was bidding for the 2012 Olympic Games. A couple of weeks after this was taken it was…

Back in late September of this year I photographed my first wedding. Obviously I had assisted my dad when he had done weddings in the past, but this was the first on my own. Fortunately I was able to convince Mark to be an assistant and at the time he kindly provided a second camera…

The Crossley Regis six from 1935 was the last model of motor car made by Crossley Motors. After this they concentrated on military contracts and later on lorries and buses.

Over the years I have seen a lot of this style of photograph, things reflected in those all glass office buildings and wanted to try my own version. Well here it is! Mainly blue sky is reflected in the copper coloured office building at the Trafford side of Millennium Bridge in Salford Quays. The two…
