The Background

Interested in photography since the early 80’s and my first SLR was a Canon 5000 – not the digital version but one that took film! Can you image the restriction of using 12,24 or 36 images per roll! Then waiting to send it off or take it into Boots and getting it back a few days or even a week later! How things have changed since those days?

Nowadays we think nothing of using 8Gig or higher cards, I am sure that somewhere I still have some 256meg cards. I do keep meaning to revisit those cards just for the sheer physical limit it places on the images taken. However I am not a fan of the machine gun approach to photography, take less and better, rather than the take many and hope approach!

things that make you go hmmm…

Semi-professional photographer based in Coventry. Use local studios for my studio based work – mainly B72 Imagings (great little studio owned by an awesome photographer). Have shot a number of bands over the years (some famous, some not so famous) each and everyone has been different and good fun. Great love of fashion shows, have shot for Clothes Show Live on a number of occasions (a good few consecutive years now), Style in the City Birmingham, Style Birmingham etc as well as Catwalk shows for a number of designers. Have worked with a number of models, the vast majority of which I would recommend (think there is only one that I wouldn’t give a reference for and she is not present on this site!). Try to ensure that all my shoots are fun – what’s the point if you don’t enjoy it?

Equipment wise, I shoot with Canon (5Dii and IDiiN) and have the usual L series lens to ensure best image quality.
