Surfs up: Photo Gallery (2024)

Surfs up: Photo Gallery (2024)

Heading down to Bournemouth Beach with my New 500mm Nikon Super Telephoto lens was such a buzz. With no commercial pressures weighing me down, I had the freedom to just focus on capturing the surfers doing their thing.

Watching them ride those waves was mesmerizing, and with the new lens, I could really zoom in and get those close-up shots that show off their skills.

I decided to go for black and white photos because it just felt right for the vibe. The contrast between the ocean spray and the sky looked killer in monochrome, adding a cool dramatic touch to the shots.

It wasn't just about snapping pics of surfers; it was about capturing the essence of Bournemouth Beach in a timeless way that speaks to the soul.

CAT Footwear Shoot (2022)

CAT Footwear Shoot (2022)

I recently helped a friend with some work capturing a range of new boots from CAT. Theyre often known for their Workmans type boots in a sandy dusky colour. But these were something different, I wanted to give them a Cyberpunk feel, or a little Techwear/post apocalyptic vibe. I was overall really pleased with how they came out, and could easily see these shots being used on digital advertisement boards in London or Printed in the window somewhere. Check out some of the results, these were shot using natural light only with no flash involved at all.
