The street I live on has changed so much over the years. Once known as “Little Jerusalem,” it’s evolved into a vibrant mix of cultures and communities. Walking up and down the city centre stretch today, you can see the shops, the people, and the energy that make it feel alive in a completely newContinue reading “The Men of Clanbrassil Street”

The Nude in Contemporary Advertising
This was a task I was to undertake for college, that I thought I would share. This is the deconstruction of an image using opinions from professionals across the fashion industry. The Nude Kate Moss signed up to David Yurman’s company in 2010 to model his new line of jewellery, posing with a ring fromContinue reading “The Nude in Contemporary Advertising”
Monster Under the Bed. Part 2
As mentioned in my “About Me” page and in my previous “Monster Under The Bed” post I hinted upon my Grandmothers collection of photos under the bed. As the first part of this series was a bit heavy on the text side, I’ve decided to be easy on you guys. This is a small collectionContinue reading “Monster Under the Bed. Part 2”
Interview with a Vampire?
First of all it would be unfair to assume that all persons originating from Transylvania are Vampires. I live with one and my neck is relatively bite-free. I do, however keep a large garland of the age-old pungent rose in our kitchen. Joking aside, the reason I am interviewing this interesting gentleman today isContinue reading “Interview with a Vampire?”
Copy This, Canon.
As a follow up to the lens-less camera post earlier, Camera Obscura, I thought I’d explore another means in which to take a picture without a lens. Inspired by those age-old office party bum shots I thought I’d try a photocopier. Well, a modern day document scanner. So I set about it with a shelfContinue reading “Copy This, Canon.”
“We can’t both have one my dear, I’ll be a gentleman and shave mine off..”
But not in Movember. It’s coming near to the end of the month, and all around the city the Moustaches are shaping up. The variations are endless and I’ve seen pretty much all that can be achieved from “the original” to “the Zappa” and everything in between. The Dali, Fu Manchu, Handlebar, Imperial, Horshoe, Pencil,Continue reading ““We can’t both have one my dear, I’ll be a gentleman and shave mine off..””

You can be sure that if you’re last shoot was a little lazy then you will only get half theContinue reading “Quick Guide to Gig Shots”
Ach Well… That’s Showbusiness
News just in. I’ll keep it short-ish. This is obviously a faked picture. Noel Fielding and Phill Jupitus were originally holding an Ad for ‘Never Mind The Buzzcocks’ which was due to be aired in the next couple of weeks. I switched the Ad for the ‘Watson ACE’ lads for use on their Facebook pageContinue reading “Ach Well… That’s Showbusiness”
The 7 minute shooting of Oscar Wilde
I had the great opportunity of meeting Rupert Everett as he came to dine in the restaurant in which I work at the weekend. As I got to know the cast and crew a wee bit and I had a feeling that this wouldn’t be the last time I saw them. As it happened MrContinue reading “The 7 minute shooting of Oscar Wilde”
