Gods Girls shoot - Cinema

Shot today in Andover's 'Reel Cinema' a set for Gods Girls. Model Becky Hill was a pleasure to work with, new to the modelling experience though was not afraid to go straight for it with no fear. Took direction well though it was rarely needed as she had drive to produce great and interesting images, involving varied shapes and positions. Very happy with the final shots achieved, keep your eyes pealed for more of this lady in the future.

Thank you to Dean for helping with the location, the managers involved that agreed to the process and the helpful staff. Was very much appreciated.

With the high amount of editing work I have to complete for a commission and a Ski holiday coming up, regretfully the shots from this set will not be up till mid March, but please keep checking the 'Commissions' section for a selection of the images and with the link to the site where the full set will be displayed.

Decapitated gig - Islington 02 Academy

Monday 8th Feb the Polish death metal band Decapitated (signed to Nuclear Blast), supported by Kataklysm and Man Must Die will be performing at Islington 02 Academy. I will be there to photograph this great event and If time allows shoot this band prior to taking the stage for some needed fresh promotional images.

The band was hit with tragedy when their tour van crashed in Russia causing Witold "Vitek" Kieltyka the most promising drummer in the genre to suffer head injuries causing death at the age of 23 and Covan the vocalists to be injured and put into a coma; his situation has not improved much and he is still in bed and unable to function on his own. After a 2 year break Wacek “Vogg” Kieltyka, guitarist & founding member of the band states that it is time to begin touring again with new members that were revealed in December '09. It has been the hardest decision he has had to make, to move on without his brother and drummer but he believes that Vitek would have wanted the band to continue.

Stereophonics 

Have been asked by Shirley Swain from Andover Sound to accompany her to the Stereophonics gig this Monday 25th at Portsmouth Guildhall. Take live photos and joining her Interview with the boys and take some snaps. Although mainly a Metal fan these days this band have been firm favourites since i was around 15 so this will be an incredible experience. Great early work and the new material is much better than I would've expected from a band thats been around this long. The new singles are fantastic and looking forward to hearing the whole show, hoping there will will be a good mix of new and old.

Last time I went to see them myself and some friends travelled all the way from Hampshire to Cardiff to see their sold out UK tour at the huge Millennium Stadium supported by Feeder and Ocean Colour Scene.

Cinema Shoot

Checking out a cinema on friday to try and get some allotted time to shoot a model in there. Variety of shots; from glamour to nude. Should be interesting, as i hope to not only shot in the cinema screen but try and get some shots on the paying counter as well if possible.

Also have more shoots lined up so keep checking back on the site. Fresh shots are up in Beauty and Portraits at the moment.

Snow galore

So much snow around at the moment i had to make good use of it. So today was an entire day spent in a few different locations getting some good shots taken. Took some modelling shots with Hayley this morning and this afternoon; some simple portraits and general shots around the area with the Snow being a formidable presence. Then later this afternoon met up with the Metal band 'Ruins Of Earth' for a promo shoot, was a fun but incredibly cold experience, as it was later in the afternoon it was a lot colder than earlier. Got some great shots taken at The Plantations (Andover) with once again the snow being ever present.

Images have been looked through and organised and I will be working on editing them immediately.
