3 weeks ago I shot these portraits for James. In his youth he was on track to compete in the olympics as a power lifter, after a car accident his back was broken and his life was derailed onto a totally different path. He shared stories from his time spent finding himself, travelling and working in all kinds of jobs until he eventually landed on becoming a therapist to help people work through life changing events. Nowadays James spends his time supporting execs in Fortune 500 companies navigate the challenges of working in high stress positions and how to work successfully as a team to overcome challenges and come together.

At the end of our shoot he gave some great words of advice to live by that really struck a chord with me.

Coincidentally that evening my life changed forever. I don’t recognise who I’ve been over the past few years, in my work as a photographer or as a person but I’m figuring that out day by day and get to choose who I am from now on. I’ve started making a list of personal projects I want to work on but I also would love to meet up with like minded creatives to collaborate and connect, maybe even just a meet up at a nice coffee spot in Manchester. What do you think, would you be up for that? Let me know ☺️

I had the pleasure of meeting a few weeks back, such a lovely guy perhaps you could say he’s a …. Gentlemen? I’d started watching The Gentlemen on Netflix a few days before he came in for the shoot and it was crazy fun to talk all about the antics on set, what it was like to work with Guy Ritchie and all the tid bits of filming the best thing I’ve seen this year. Next can we please get Theo James to drop by 👀

Welcome to February. It’s been a busy old start to the year and I realised I haven’t posted anything for the whole of January! So here’s a portrait of the one and only oh wait no I mean David Platt, wait… no it’s defo Jack. 💯 Jack for sure. I had the chance to grab this image in the last 30 seconds of a shoot for a podcast that Jack hosts along with Colson Smith & Ben Price

What a fun shoot and great to have each of the lads time at the end to indulge my request for a quick individual portrait.

If you’ve shot with me in the past few months I might have mentioned something about moving to a new studio this year… well it finally happened and last week was my first few days of shooting in the new space. I’m in process of setting it up as a permanent space whilst I get used to it but wanted to share these images of the communal areas which I just absolutely love at

It’s defo giving chill creative vibes and it’s exciting to see how the space will grow and fill with other makers, artists and businesses over the next year. As a bonus the coffee spots and places for lunch around are 🤌🏻 Its defo a little upgrade from the old place 😁

I recently got to shoot with .antwi whilst she was in Manchester for the of Quiz at The Lowry. Turns out she was the understudy & swing for Hermione Granger in The Cursed Child when we went to see it back in 2019 for Emma’s 30th birthday what a small world.

Valerie mentioned she wanted to try something a little different in the session and brought out a beautiful colourful hair wrap and I instantly knew I wanted to shoot a specific type of portrait of her wearing it. Love how this turned out, the slight regal vibe, the texture of the wrap and those earrings 🤌🏻

Somebody had a great time turning 1 today, cupcake carnage after a fun day at Alton Towers. She would have loved oblivion if it was open today…
