Banksy Dismaland

it has been a while since I've last posted here, but i have some exciting things to share. As the world is aware Banksy has opened up Dismaland in my home of Weston-Super-Mare. And i was one of the lucky few to have a first look inside as a resident. It was a long day starting out at 4am and joining the queue by 5:30. But it was worth it.

I will not post my photos of the inside here as to avoid spoilers but if you do want to check them out the have a look over at my Facebook page gallery where you can see the collection.

On other news, i can share with you guys that i was the only photographer to get a photo of the one and only JACK BLACK visiting the exhibit, where he was ushered in but not in time to avoid getting snapped by me.

As well as a portrait of Grantley from Bristol band Massive Attack

You can also find me now published on the Weston Mercury, Bristol Post, Western Daily Press and Bath Chronicle websites with these images.

Well I have not posted in a while as its been a busy few weeks, but i thought i would try and get a bit more up to date with the times and as such have created my first QR code for my website so that there is much easier access for people on the go.

Looking forward to the end of this week as long s the weather holds out there will be new work appearing over the weekend.

Fingers crossed we see the sun again.

Just because penguins are the coolest.

UKIP Weston Super Mare

Over last week I had the privilege of meeting some of the weston super mare UKIP candidates for the general and local elections for 2015. I spent 3 days meeting and getting to know the team and seeing local politics in action. It was nice to see that its not like it is portrayed on the television. Very little shouting and arguing and seeing people actually care about the local area, and wanting to make improvements to it. It was also a privilege to meet some of the local people of Weston and hear them talk about the town in a positive way, and wanting to work together to make positive changes whilst working together. The added bonus of eating cakes and sandwiches also made it a few days worth while. As well as getting some great images.

We were also privileged to see a march of all the local scouts groups showing great pride in what they do.

I would also like to point out that I do not have any ties with any political party and that it was also an insight to be able to meet and hear all of the other main local MP candidates speak and show passion for what they believe in.

Film Noir and Fashion

Continuing on with the film noir inspired shoots from last year, more recently I have transferred this over into a fashion editorial shoot with a friend of my partner. And also beginning to work in colour again and transfer over the skills i have been learning to create images that still fit into a specific genre but have their own style.
This will also help to build up her portfolio for a career as an extra in film and television.

Weston Super Mare Film Noir

Back in the winter I began to work on a series of images inspired by film noir and black and white photography. Watching films and movies from the 1950s helped to inspire and influence these images. Even looking at Cindy Sherman helped to move this project forward and inspired me to produce a self portrait in a similar way to who she worked on her film stills series.

Welcome To My New Blog

Welcome to my new blog. As a photography degree student in Weston Super Mare I will be conducting a wide variety of projects looking into different areas of photography.  I have already began to use lighting and adding light into my images, and have been conducting projects around the local area in Weston and back in my home of Bristol.
