Laura and Stephen asked me to photograph them on the water front at Plymouth Hoe as the place had some sentimental value to them. Is a perfect area for these kind of shoots and with nice weather it was an enjoyable hour of photography.

Looe Bay Seascape Shoot
Looe bay has been one of those locations that I'v found quite difficult to photograph. It's relatively close to where I live so been visiting it frequently but I've struggled to get a good composition every time I've been and the lights never quite been right.
This occasional was slightly different. I explored the water edge on the west side of the town and managed to climb onto a rock at the entrance of the river which produced a cool angle of the pier and background of the town. I had hoped the sunset would have been more dramatic but the light was still interesting. Happy with some of the results that will be well suited as addition to my stock collection.
Below are a few of the shots with slightly different compositions that I've put together as HDR images. Still working on the normal versions.

Cornish Waterfal
Found this waterfall on route to Tintagel. After walking 2 miles through woodland following a river I came across a little cottage in the middle of no-where in deep undergrowth. A small path ran from the cottage garden into a deep gully, at the end of the gully was this waterfall.
Really stunning area that seemed to be popular with spiritual people with all the shrines that where places along the cliff gully. After doing a bit of research found it was originally where Saint Nectan lived in 500 A.D which explains all the shrines and gifts left there. A really photogenic place.

Shoot for Foot Clinic
I did a small commercial shoot for a foot clinic a few months ago. The brief was to capture a portrait of the owner in the environment of the clinic to put on her website.
I'm finding more and more people are starting to hire me for these small kind of shoots and a few more updates from these kind of projects will follow soon.

Surf session at Fistral.
Had a great surf trip down Fistral Beach with some old friends. I knew Carl for a long time back when we went to school together and I was only too keen to hook up again when he extended the offer to join him and a few mates on a surf trip.
The surf was a nice size and I decided to swim out with my camera. Unfortunately one of my swim fins snapped so I had a good work out swimming around the impact zone with one fin but was still fun, and got some cool shots with some good surfing going on in front of the lens.
The day ended watching the sunset at Newquay town beach eating fish and chips, listening to Libby playing the guitar. Good times with great people, nice way to end the weekend.

April,May,June,July,
It's been a busy four months since I'v last undated. The seascape project I'v been working on has progressed a fair bit. I'v taken trip to Godrevy,St ives, Portreath, and crackington haven to name a few. Been great to explore this this much of Conrwall. Aside from this I have done a few small commercial and portrait jobs which rang from photographing interiors or indoor bowling greens and portraits for a foot clinic! Also had the pleasure of working with a good friend Bob how is a keen mountain biker. We went to a beautiful part of the coastline called the Strangle to get some scenic action shots for stock portfolio's.
I have enjoyed some great surf and snorkel session which I have had great fun documenting. Next month I have a batch of four weddings. Looking forward to getting some fresh wedding imagery for my portfolio to aid my promotion drive for next year. My friend Matty is also launching a new magazine covering uk bodyboarding which I'm looking forward to be part off in the forthcoming months.
Some of my work below from the last few months.
