Pattaya City

The Pattaya Blues

For the final few days of my trip I found myself heading back to Pattaya on the eastern Gulf coast.  I'd been to Pattaya the year previous and although it wasn't my most favourite of places, for just a couple of nights it's an ideal place to party, drink and dance.  A good send off … Continue reading The Pattaya Blues

Return to Phuket

As I write this I've just finished binge watching After Life by Ricky Gervais on Netflix.  If you haven't watched it, I thoroughly recommend it.  Hilarious and sad at the same time.  A heads up however that it might affect the tone of this post! After my shoot with Dia in Bangkok, the next day … Continue reading Return to Phuket

DIa

Dia

So, day one in Thailand had been pretty exhausting.  I'd visited Ayutthaya and I'd also done a night shoot with Tegoshi Miwa.  I wasn't done yet though as for day two in Bangkok I had a second portrait shoot booked in! I thought I'd start things off a little easier though and after a lie … Continue reading Dia

Tegoshi Miwa

Tegoshi Miwa

Whilst I'd been having a great time exploring Ayutthaya, as the day wore on my thoughts increasingly turned toward my evening plans. Over the past 12 months I'd been exploring portrait photography more and more and the opportunity to shoot a model whilst I was in Thailand had worked its way into my head.  'Nelly' … Continue reading Tegoshi Miwa

Wat Mahathat, Ayutthaya

Adventures in Ayutthaya

November 2016 arrived and with it was my planned return to Thailand.  I'd had so much fun the previous year that I was determined to return and see some of the things I'd missed 12 months earlier. Top of the list for my first few days after arrival was to visit the ancient city of … Continue reading Adventures in Ayutthaya

Urbex with Marmalade.

Marmalade

One of the genres I really wanted to try at least once in photography, even if it might be considered a cliche was to do an urbex shoot involving a model.  Urbex, for those of you who don't know is the urban exploration of abandoned ruins and man-made structures. If you look, you'll find a … Continue reading Marmalade

Camy at Orcombe Point, Exmouth

Camy

Firstly, to anyone who may read or stumble across this blog - I wish you a happy new year.  I'm not much of a big one for believing in a new year being a clean slate ... I'm far more of a take each day as it comes kind of person. Today followed yesterday, tomorrow … Continue reading Camy

Larysa at Orcombe Point, Exmouth

Larysa

It was a Saturday in mid-July and I'd just finished a long day at work. Logging into Purpleport whilst passing the evening away I saw a last minute casting for a group shoot, with a space that had just become available due to a cancellation.  It was a beach shoot with Camy and Larysa - … Continue reading Larysa

Cap de Formentor

Mallorca

Although I wish I could be a full-time traveller and photographer, sadly that's not the case.  The day job involves working in the self catering cottages industry in the South West of England. Back in late 2015, the company I worked for decided we would dip our toes in the overseas market and would work … Continue reading Mallorca

Amie Boulton

Amie

In a bid to desperately catch up on blog posts I'm going to attempt to upload two old portrait shoots this month! This is one from early April in 2016.  A mini shoot really, in collaboration with the awesome Amie Boulton and fellow photographers, Mike from White Label Photography and Elliye. Similar to the shoot … Continue reading Amie
