In January, AnyForty head honcho, Al came to me wanting to run an idea by me — “I wonder if I could make a range work by getting a group of artists to do their own take on the Pride graphic”. “Hell yes” I told him. In March I headed up to Mayfield Studio, Newcastle to hang out with the AnyForty family and shoot that range.
I’ve always had a soft spot for the Fairlady, right back to the 1970s Datsun 240z. This tidy Nissan 350z is no exception. It’s a street driven drift car owned and built by my friend Sean. I offered to shoot his car for him so he had a cover image for his upcoming car check video — this week we made that happen.
On Sunday night I lost my automotive light painting virginity with this V8 Audi S5! The shot is comprised of 20+ 30 second long exposures. During each exposure I light painted a section of the car, slowly working my way round until I’d covered all the lines.
At the very end of last year my lady & I were at the cabin. It’s while we were there that a very unassuming spider set Spadge off on a new challenge — facing Britain’s top ten fears all while writing a book about it.

For a while I’ve been following Honest Thomas on Instagram — drooling over his hand made products. On Sunday Bandit & I finally made the trip up to West Yorkshire to hangout with the man himself & his Plumber Terrier, Our Judd.
With summer fast (sarcasm) approaching it was time to do another shoot for UK based streetwear brand, Growl & Grandeur. I headed over to Nottingham to meet up with G&G big-wig Collin. He’d scoped out an awesome location, The Pit Studio, where we met up with models Courtney Lloyd & Natasha Kalashnikova.
Towards the end of last year I was approached to do some promo product photography for some brand-new wearable tech. The campaign brief consisted of 3 product shots, worn by models in different locations. Sounds simple right? There was a catch… Both the product and the locations didn’t actually exist. The product, called The Link band, is […]
I was approached earlier this year by Gather.ly & Canon to be part of a new project. They wanted me to produce some images with a behind the scenes video. They gave me a brief ’24Hrs with your DSLR’ a small budget & access to some of their amazing kit — the rest was up to me.
