It’s that time of year again where we start thinking about annual Photography Show at the NEC Birmingham 16-19th March. The show now also incorporates The Video Show which demonstrates the huge change in the industry for professional photographers and it will be interesting to see how much more video content there is this year compared to 2018. I’ll be going along with my team…
Photography, video, lecturing and drone filming, it's what I've been doing for over 30 years. This isn't a showcase for my work, if you want to see what I do please visit my business website. This blog is about my views on the industry, new practices, reviewing products and offer help if you have questions. If you can contribute to the blog by writing articles offering advice and information to other photographers I'd love to hear from you.
It’s been a while since I updated these pages, I had all good intentions of writing regularly when I first started and this blog seemed to be getting a lot of interaction. Unfortunately…or fortunately the workload got too heavy as it does every year and having taken on another two people to join the team I thought it would make my life a little easier,…
It’s been a while since I’ve managed to update anything on the blog as the workload over the last few months has been intense.

Before digital, photography was a very different art form. Many argue that over the years something has been lost in the new digital process. We’re now able to shoot thousands upon thousands of images and immediately look at our results. There was a time though, where photographers had to think carefully about every single press of the shutter. SD, XQD and Compact Flash cards allow…
At a wedding my team and I shot last week the bride met us at the door of her parents house and said ‘Wow! You all look so smart”, there were four of us, two photographers and two videographers. That instant first impression on the day was made and from that moment on we were treated as professionals on the day, the fact we were…
I’ve purchased a fair few memory card readers over the years to download, CF, SD, MicroSD and XQD (Nikon D4s ) cards and I’m not sure if it’s me but I’ve never had one that’s lasted more than a year….they just seem to…stop! My last purchase was one from www.wexphotovideo made by Prospec Imaging, it’s lasted a matter of months and is no longer recognised by…

Finally received the DJI Copilot a couple of days ago; dji-copilot/ I first came across this product at the lacie.com stand a few months ago at the Media Show at Olympia where the rep spent a lot of time explaining this new portable drive. What makes this portable drive different to others is that you can insert SD and Micro SD cards and download files immediately and…
Blogging….it’s time consuming! So it’s been a busy period since the last post but I’ll try and get one post up a week, in particular I’ll be reviewing a number of different products I’ve purchased this year. It’s been a mix of photography, video and drone equipment as well as a new ‘monster spec’ PC I had to purchase a couple of months ago that…
