I believe the job of a photographer is to tell a story with the images they take. But sometimes my photographic adventures have stories that go beyond the camera, and I enjoy writing about them.
The posts below are a mixture of those adventures, combined with tutorials on lighting and printing, and all are designed to make photography more accessible to those with a shared interest in creating impactful images.
Exploring volcanoes with an art model
I was holding my phone when a WhatsApp notification appeared on the screen from Elena. “We’re downstairs!” It was a dark and rainy morning in London, a perfect way to leave for a warmer island. I got in the front next to the driver and simultaneously greeted Mark and Elena behind me, whilst also apologising for the early start. Our final moments in the UK were spent in Gatwick airport sharing a homemade cheesecake that Elena had brought. A nice symbolic gesture, but also an indication of how we were all going to enjoy spending time together. Afterall, you can do anything with people that you have shared a cheesecake with before 6 am in the morning.
