Personal Notebook and Photographic Journal
I've been out each morning as early as possible in order to catch the drills run by the cavalry officers and trainees in the paddock next to the Knightsbridge barracks, a few minutes walk from Knightsbridge station. It's a nice peaceful way to spend a morning, and a nice project seems to be developing from... Continue Reading →
The video I mentioned in this post has finally been released on the NGE YouTube channel. I worked with a videographer who I know from the London Nightcrawlers scene, Alexander Banks, across three days in October. We recorded a introductory bit of footage along the Regents Canal and an XR encampment at Euston Station, although... Continue Reading →
I recently spent about eight hours in Istanbul during a stopover between my flights from Bulgaria to my onward travel to the United States. I made it into the terminal at just after midnight, and needed to find some way to fill the time before my next plane was due to fly at 8:35am. Most... Continue Reading →
Spending two weeks in Bulgaria was my only way to legally (while pandemic restrictions were in place) travel to the United States to work on a project that had been in the works for months. There were a few criteria I needed to look at, but ultimately my best route was two weeks in Sofia... Continue Reading →
A few updates, some recent, some distant and which should have probably been their own distinct entry, but I've fallen very behind in my writing.

I started this day doing general street work, and headed from Oxford Circus to Elephant and Castle late in the day to photograph what I thought was just a small protest at the shopping centre. What I didn't realise was that this was actually the last day before the Elephant and Castle shopping centre would... Continue Reading →
Today I photographed a local youth group called Prospex, who had noticed the amount of trash in the canal basin during a recent excursion, and who wanted to go out and clean some of it up.I shot from 5pm onwards until just before 7pm, just as the light started to die. I'm happy with some... Continue Reading →
Darkroom printing individual images has been at the back of my mind for a while - one of my goals is to stockpile sellable prints in order to have something worthwhile to market in the event of another lockdown/second wave of the pandemic situation. Sadly the darkroom I printed at last year closed down, so... Continue Reading →
Printing my work has become more and more of a pressing option for me, partially as a result of having less to shoot due to the restrictions of working during a pandemic. Retrospection and introspection have led me towards a deeply critical eye over the work I've produced over the last few years. https://i.imgur.com/AaGMDdl.jpg I've... Continue Reading →
