Following an amazing shoot at the weekend with Leanna, I have updated my Studio & Location gallery with some new images and extended the gallery to include some location shoots from a few weeks ago.

Since the beginning of the year, I have shot 15 different studio sessions and 1 location shoot with a total of 16 different models.  I think that all the shoots have been great fun and I am very pleased with the feedback that I am getting.

I also have a larger portfolio from the various shoots on Model Mayhem website.

If you are interested in working with me then please feel free to contact me via email.

This week I finally got round to ordering the prints for my entry in the Taylor Wessing Portrait Prize which need to be delivered next week for judging.  I haven’t used a London (or even UK) based print lab before so after some research in settled on theprintspace which are based in East London.

First I downloaded the printer ICC profiles from their website and put them in the correct folder on my PC so they are available in Lightroom.  Next I had to decide on the type of paper which was helped hugely because I had previous ordered a sample pack from theprintspace. Now I was able to create the optimal files for printing – sized appropriately with the correct ICC profile.  Given that I have left it quite late to get the prints, I decided on opt for the courier delivery service as well.

Finally, I was able to upload the files to theprintspace website which has an excellent and easy to use interface – this surprised me because last time I looked at a pro print lab it was much harder.  All of this was at 6:30am on Wednesday morning so I thought that my prints would arrive on Thursday or Friday.

When I arrived home on Wednesday evening, imagine my complete astonishment because my prints had already arrived – truly outstanding service.  The prints are also amazing!  I would highly recommend using theprintspace for your prints so I know that I will be.
