A weekend of glamour

Its a hard life being a photographer, specially working with beautiful females wearing gorgeous lingerie and generally looking stunning.

This weekend i again had the pleasure of working with Viktoria, and also with Kat, my first shoot with Kat.

The weekend began with Vik, we did a shoot in a warehouse nearby, and here are a few images from our shoot.




Viktoria is simply gorgeous, such a nice person, i could work with her all day long and not get tired.

Next up was Kat, and a long drive to Chesterfield, for a location shoot at Sutton Scarsdale Hall in Derbyshire.

Kat is a seasoned glamour model, and very sexy, it was an easy shoot until we got kicked out due to complaints about our work, and looking at the images, its a wonder we didnt get arrested.


 








Although we hadn't planned an adult shoot, it kinda went that way, Kat has no shyness so was well into this shoot.

Sadly i did not get to shoot Kez, we were gonna do it at the Hall but seeing as i had already been kicked out i did not want to risk going back and getting into even deeper trouble, but the journey was worth it in the end, Kat and i got some cracking images, would love to work with her again.

Latest news (all good)

There have been some developments in my circumstances lately, good developments.

I could be part of the team that makes up The Works photographic studio. Seeing as i have only worked with models since november, to be considered was an honour,  so i am really going to push the boat out to make this happen.

To turn pro has always been a dream, but i never thought it would happen this fast in my so far short loved fashion and glamour career, even saying fashion and glamour career seems a bit odd to me, as before november i had no idea i would even entertain the thought.

My how things change.

I will not lie, it is a tremendous opportunity for me, one which i intend to grab with both hands and run with. It will help me develop my style and gain valuable studio experience, and of course make new contacts along the way.

Im looking forward to this new chapter in my life.

Selection of images from my latest shoots

It has been a while since i posted any images here, so do you notice anything different with my work? Yes, its improved =o)

I have learned a lot in these past few months, worked with some lovely models whom i thank from the bottom of my heart. And i have worked damned hard to get where i am now.

I am totally different now to how i was on my first shoot, i am very directional, very sure of my abilities also, and very relaxed on shoots. I enjoy my work 100%

I now have a steady and loyal fanbase, models who comment on my work constantly, sending me messages of support, expressing an interest to work with me, which is truely flattering, and i appreciate all the support i get.

Now i have my own style, my work is distinctively my work, from approach to colours, i now have a look that i love, and my work is getting darker, sometimes surreal, always strangely beautiful.

Urbex

When i was knee high to a grasshopper, quite young, myself and some friends gained entry to an old motorcycle repair premises nearby. It had lain empty for some time, but we were nervous about going in, i was only about 11 at the time, but i remember that i really wanted to look inside and investigate a now empty place that once had the hustle and bustle of human activity.

Some years later, and im still exploring these kind of places, abandoned and empty buildings, most recently the carehome in Holbeach, and an industrial unit at Wyton, now sadly demolished, but i got 2 shoots in before it got pulled down, as recently as 2 weeks ago. Gutted.

So i had to find another abandoned and forgotten location, one as beautiful as the Wyton one.

And i have found it, oh hell yeah =oD


Impressive huh?





Its a former RAF base near me, mostly vandalized by wankers with too much time on their hands, but there are plenty of rooms intact and untouched by fire.

I have a handful of shoots booked there already, one in about 11 hours time, so i better get some sleep really.

Recent photoshoot images coming soon, been so busy lately so i apologise for lack of updates, a summary will appear soon =oD

A tough call

Planned before next tuesday was a phooshoot in York at Fountains Abbey, as well as locations around the York area, 5 shoots in total in 2 days.

Sadly i have had to cancel due to bad weather. Its still as cold as january when we tried last time. It was a hard choice to make, but for the best in the long run, it would only have been another wasted journey.

Thankfully the models have been great about it, and understand that i had to cancel.
