A product packshot for Pride Mobility UK based in Bicester, Oxfordshire. This particular photo was shot at a specified angle and height, so all their products had a standard perspective. Additionally, it allows the photo to be easily manipulated into a lifestyle environment. All the packshots were retaken with a model reading a book, using a laptop and watching a TV so this would allow for more variations on themes. All of these packshots were taken at their Bicester based head office using mobile studio equipment.

A product packshot for Pride Mobility UK. Following on from the previous picture, this is a close up of the Leather Recline chair. This particular close up was photographed to demonstrate the quality and colour of the wood, but also the easy reach handle to recline the chair.

Stock Imagery. This particular picture was taken in a professional Wantage based studio using a fishtank, food colouring and a pipette. After every shot the fish tank needed to be emptied and refilled using distilled water. A total of 6 studio lights were used to remove all shadows.

Despite looking like an onstage performance photo, this was taken at the client's address using mobile studio equipment. The light was infact a flashgun triggered wireless from the camera. A smoke machine was used to diffuse the light from the flashgun and give it a large stage appearance. The camera was also shot from on the floor to emphasize the effect.

Two Marshall Arts instructors wanted photographs of their various combat techniques and practices in traditional settings rather than a modern class workshop. This particular shot was taken on the top of Malvern Hill, Wocestershire overlooking the vast countryside. The only image manipulation used were basic colour and contrast tweaks.

New Calidonian Crested Gecko

A local Wantage based music band. The band members paint their faces with UV reactive paint whilst playing. So we used their UV light cannons in the photoshoot to bring out the wacky and vibrant colours. The pose and arrangement was inspired by Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody music video. The picture was photographed using a Canon 1D Mark III.

A stock photography shot taken on a bridge above the M40 motorway near Milton Common, Oxfordshire. The picture was made up of three seperate photographs. The light trails of the traffic were taken on a 10 second exposure, whilst the sky and surrounds were taken slightly earlier in the evening on a shorter exposure.

This was a commercial visit to Wantage's Vale and Downland Museum to take some shots of the various exhibits for brochures and magazines. The photograph is of one of the exhibits. We wanted to make the room come to life in the pictures, so two monoblocs were set up in and out of the room. One was pointing in through the window, to act like sunshine beaming through the window and the other was in room to lift the dark corners.

No computer wizardry was used to make this image. This is high speed photograph of a water droplet hitting the surface of a baking tray full of water. The multicoloured effect is actually a cardboard background being reflected in the water.
