10.20.10Clearsavvy.comI've been providing consultation to a new start up venture Clearsavvy.com over the last few months. As well as working on the web application I put together some simple shots for press materials as they get ready to tell the world about the fantastic application they have been working away on in Brighton, UK. I wanted to show that not only are the founding members of the company Mike Oxley and Mark Hla incredibly experienced and professional in their respected fields, but that this is a company with a far more transparent and honest approach. A relaxed sofa setting in their ...

04.30.10Terrathorn – promoshootTerrathorn accompanied Here There Be Monsters on the recent Hulk Smash tour which I was part of, documenting the tour and live shows for Black Match Records. The last date was in Brighton which proved the perfect opportunity to get the guys into some grimey spots for some new promoshots. They have a video for the excellent No Pets Allowed single coming out on Scuzz in the next couple of weeks.

04.28.09Nedry Promoshoot ptIIIAnother capture from the photoshoot last weekend with Electronic Alternative trio Nedry. This was the first set up of the day and was based around a theme I was working on as part of an album-art concept. It has been the hardest one to develop so far, but I think I have got somewhere I am happy with. You know when your friend says to you, oh I have just spent hours in Photoshop on this image, but when you look at it you think, really? It's like that. Continue Reading...

04.27.09Balancing daylight with StrobesThis another from the Nedry promoshoot taken at Abney Park Cemetery, London. This was quite a tricky shot to set up. The alcove is very tight, which gave this wonderful frame, but the sun was pumping head on. Brilliant you might think! Wrong, because it means that dark crevices are seriously dark. The main issue was that Chris (in the back of the shot) was stuck in the shadows. Taking meter readings off the front was only going to expose the brickwork and Ayu and Matt at the front. In addition to this, although I wanted to get some strong shadows in ...

The electronic experimentalists already lined up to showcase at several weekend and all dayers around Europe. There will be a full set from the shoot along with a write up on the trials and tribulations of balancing sunlight with strobes over the next few days. Until then, you can listen to Nedry and find out about tour dates ...
