Stumbled across this little gem not long ago, defiantly a must see if your a Hitchcock fan, epic piece of work here.
This guys work is just mint, purely refreshing!
So, new city, new job, freshly painted walls, lots of travelling and late nights have been the my main theme for 2012. A swift and surprising move to the Big Smoke has taken an impact on the amount I’ve been able to crack the camera out but for the first time in ages I’m scribbling away like mad with ideas for shots, all very exciting. Can’t wait to get out and start the testing!
But for now here’s a image from my last portrait shoot in Newcastle with Mr Chris Dent.
Love shooting these, learn something new every time I take one.
It’s always a nice treat to see something with a bit of a difference when your out for a night and even better when you’ve got your camera in hand. As well as some quality tunes from Tim Shaw (INERTIA & TRIPTIK) & Mr Blazey (NATURAL SELECTION & TRIPTIK) the night was accompanied by a live street artist producing a piece right in front of the building, a great way to compliment the magazine I thought:
Novel magazine held their new event “Stop. The. Press.” at the Baltic on the 3rd February, a nice way to kick start 2012. I was lucky enough to be asked to cover the event on my last official weekend living in Newcastle. I hadn’t previously been to an event at the Baltic but the guys at Novel put on a fantastic night held in the downstairs restaurant, plenty of high spirits, flowing liquor and a view with a difference. More to follow in the next post though.
Here’s just a few of my favourite shots from the night.
In 2011 Grenson & Barbour collaborated to produce a limited edition high-end Men’s footwear range. Here’s a shot of the logo that was designed to combine the two identities of the brands throughout their collaboration. This booklet was to be shipped out to retailers and be included in shoe boxes along side products.
This shot was from a recent shoot for graphic designer Henry Jackson Janes portfolio. Stirling work here, the look and feel of the booklet really gets across the vintage feel.

Doco couldn’t help but get out his beautiful feline friend and I couldn’t help but shoot his finely plastered hand. Some cheeky incidentals I grabbed before our portrait shoot.
A fantastic couple of days shooting with Mr Lee Docherty. This guy possibly owns the largest amount of retro clothing I’ve ever seen in my life!
They put on a fantastic show at this years Durham Lumiere and the turn out was absolutely mind boggling, never seen the city so full of people. Unfortunately I didn’t manage to get inside the Cathedral but I was pleased with the shots I managed to get, here’s a wee sample.
The one and only Miss Lucie Holman.
I love the style and theme of this magazine, it’s very well presented, ethically produced, a bit raw and straight to the point, which is right up my street.
It’s great that they are creating a way for artists in the North East to get published as we all know it can be a struggle at times and it’s fantastic to see people so keen to collaborate with new artists.
