July News

  Hello and welcome to my July newsletter. This time last year I spent a day at BBC Yorkshire refreshing their presenter shots for the iPlayer.  The presenters went through make up by Rachel O’Dell and then came through to be photographed for about 30mins each, in my studio set up (see shots below).  During […]

Easter newsletter

  It’s with mixed emotions that I look back on this photoshoot for the BBC’s ‘You, Me and the Big C’ podcast back in March 2018.  I met Rachael Bland, Deborah James and Lauren Mahon in the Alchemist bar in Salford to take publicity images.  They were all really excited and giddy as I took […]

February News

Fancy a dip in the February North Sea? It's never too cold for Jo Moseley, founder of Happy Healthy 50. Jo's aim is to celebrate, encourage & inspire sporty women over 50! I loved this shoot for Prima magazine. Especially before and after the 'cold bit' sitting in Jo's dad's cottage, with beautiful views overlooking Runswick Bay, drinking tea and having a good chat. Jo was so enthusiastic and such a good sport - not one complaint about the cold and she did everything I asked of her again and again with a smile on her face. I thought I'd been very clever wearing my wellies and waterproof trouser as I waded into the freezing sea to get the best angles but I got too keen and my wellies flooded. Drove home in cold wet socks.

I can end up anywhere in the North of England for my photoshoots but this […]

News from last Summer

I only met the late James Dunn twice back in 2017 but he made a big impression on me.  The James I met was a strong, brave, kind and enthusiastic young man with a great sense of humour and a loving family.  He didn’t have an easy life becasue he suffered from Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB).  […]
