Komatsu machines in sparking silver
This week I visited the Komatsu plant to capture images for a library of paint colour options for their mobile digger machines. The sparkling metallic silver against the blue sky was a sight to behold!
My brief was to capture the thorough nature of the paintwork and to promote this to the Komatsu client base. It made an interesting change to the usual yellow branding. Apparently they come in any colour requested, even in melon twisting neon colours!
Studio HB Collaboration Print Project- Calender 2012
This January there have been a few lucky recipients chosen to receive this fab 2012 calendar. The project was a print collaboration with Studio HB in London http://www.studiohb.co.uk/ who’s speciality is large scale graphics for museums, environment and exhibition spaces.
Myself and Helen from Studio HB brainstormed the creative and got cracking after a short notice commission in mid December. Anyone who hasn’t got one who would like one do please drop me a line and request one.
I have dropped in on a few fellow studio dwellers here at Kingsland Church Studios and found them with, Painter Jim Edwards, http://jimedwardspaintings.com/home.html, Artist Natalie Bell http://nataliebellartist.com/home.html & Sculptor Yvette Hawkins, http://www.paperfaerie.com/
Hope you like it!
Candlelit Photography at Beverley Minster
On the eve of Christmas eve I drove down to Hull to capture a really moving concert in the spectacular Beverley Minster. Annamaria from AM Live Music http://www.amlivemusic.com/ had got in touch to boost the visual promotion for the 2012 concerts.
The building is utterly beautiful and for those who have never visited, its worth a peep. You could hear a pin drop at moments (and the rustle of my North Face and the click of my shutter :-/ ) and when the choir and orchestra belted out their skills the acoustics were unreal. I have to say I enjoyed the concert as much as the shoot! It was lovely to see little Leia again too. She really is a super star!
Olive & Bean Eatery, Newcastle Food and Drink and Interiors Photography
Last week I commissioned by Paul at the Wonderstuff Studio to capture reflective imagery of the eatery and delicatessen Olive and Bean in Newcastle city centre. I was really looking forward to seeing the variety of colours in the food  and drink produce and the interior design.
The images were for a a fab new website that Wonderstuff are designing and as you can see from this selection of images it is warm, inviting and hugely supportive of local fresh produce. It looked so good that I actually went back with friends to try the well recommended afternoon tea. We ate until we felt nauseous!
