Stock Fashion Shoot

Perrie Clothing and Ruby and Zac are two labels of one small fashion company in the east end of London.

Perrie Clothing is for everyday wear and Ruby and Zac is more trendy.

I hooked up with the lovely Josie again to shoot some coats and spring wear.  

I know Josie would rather be trying on high fashion items

but she is always fun to work with and completely professional, despite not being a full time model.

This shoot took 6 hours and we photographed over 150 outfits.  Here with a few highlights

The Urban Voodoo Machine New Single – Rather You Shot Me Down

I was very excited to be asked to direct and film the new video for The Urban Voodoo Machine.

I have photographic knowledge and have been experimenting with video over the last year, but putting together a professional music video in the time was a tall order.

After coming up with the original concept with Caroline who’s idea it was to have Ane seemingly leaving PR only to return to him, things sort of started to roll.

PR had a few good ideas to build on, the poker game, the glass shot, and the use of The Lexington.  The rest sort of took shape through talks with PR.

After a conversation with Miss Miranda, we had someone on the graphics, and an offer from Anthony Ratcliffe on the editing.

On the day of The Lexington shoot, the sound and lights guy was unavailable so we lit the whole thing using my two studio flash-heads, using only the modeling light attachment. 

Add some second anglefilming from Anthony at The Lexington and The Poker Game, a walk round London with Ane and you have one decent video in 3 weeks.

The video has already had a massive 1200 plays in 48 hours. 

Good job all round team, pleasure working with you.

Baroness Tamara von Stein zu Leitershofen

It might be a long winded name but The Baroness is definitely one of the better Cabaret performers around London at the moment.

Her act is a sensual comedy involving the audience and opera singing.  She always delights and is totally in control.

We’ve worked together before over 2 years ago so it was nice to catch up.  

The Baroness has been heavily involved with charity fundraising this past year so please visit her website and give what you can.

This shoot was done over two locations near my hometown in St Leonard’s, over 3 hours.  

We were lucky the weather was with us and that the sea had in interesting sky.  

The shots will be used for press and promotion throughout the coming year.

Promotional Shots

Steven is a presenter based in London.

He needed some images for a new job card and to keep a professional looking profile on work and social network sites.

This is a perfect example of a 1 hour personal photo shoot with up to 10 retouched images.

Scarves

Had a  job recently mainly doing colour swatches for a client selling scarves with a couple of model shots.

It was an interesting job as the colours understandably have to be accurate.

Getting the colour temperature correct for the shoot and balancing things afterward is actually very difficult and involved.

Still it is possible but the taking of the photos is only the first step.  Photoshop and time does the rest.
