A year ago I filmed my first music video on a cold but sunny late April day on The Black Isle.  It seems such a long time ago and during that time I have learned so much.   The more you do the more you learn and this is the [...]

I was privileged to be invited by the Centre for Multiparty Democracy to document an evening celebrating the election of Justin (JB) Muturi to the position of Speaker in Kenya’s National Assembly. Photos taken on Canon 550D with Auto Chinon 28mm 2.8 and Meyer Gorlitz Trioplan 100mm 2.8.  All photos are copyright [...]

I took this set more than a year ago when I got my first film camera, an old Soviet Zenit E.  I’m always curious about curio.  My parents’ house is full of them…though I suspect not through the choice of my mother. Taken on Zenit E with Carl Zeiss Pancolar [...]

The brand new game show with Britain’s ultimate gift and life changing prize: a visa. It’s a refugee right to remain royal rumble; the winner takes all but for the losers all they receive is their airfare home. The Gift of The Nation was the first ever screenplay I wrote. [...]

I posted my favourite cross-processed shots of home the other day, which inspired me to give it a go in Kenya… Cross process or Xpro is shooting on slide film (E6) and developing it as regular colour film (C41).  It produces surprising and irregular results… I’m still to master it. [...]

Like eyes and faces, hands tell a story too. I saw this lettuce farmer delivering his produce to a shop. I noticed the twine on his finger and asked him about it. “I love my wife but I don’t want to lose my ring when I wash the lettuce” Taken on [...]

“Now I have moved and I’ve kept on moving Proved the points that I needed proving Lost the friends that I needed losing Found others on the way”  - Dougie MacLean, Caledonia. I’ve been thinking about home.  Some of my favourite Cross Processed shots of home – The Black Isle, [...]

I saw these guys pull up to get their car washed…I think it was a Datsun…my Grandfather had a Datsun. I couldn’t get any angle on the car as they’d parked right up next to the next car…so I asked them if I could take their photo and also kindly [...]
