A week ago I had the pleasure of shooting with Naomi. It was her first time in front of the camera and she did brilliantly

Happy New Year!!
Yesterday I did a shoot with my best friend testing new lighting set ups. I have posted the new images in my portfolio.

I was having a look at the Poladroid website only to find out that there’s been a new version released It has several bug fixes and it now offers photos at 400 dpi which is perfect for printing. It still has all of it s old features of the different photographic effects and it still has the same sounds and the ability to “shake” the polaroid while its “developing”. So much fun for free – its great

If you want the software, then go here: Poladroid.

Just the other day I found a website that lets you upload your own photos and create creepy button eyed portraits. They’re actually pretty cool if not a little bit macabre.
When you go to this site: Creepy Button Eyed Portraits,  you can upload your own photos or you can use your webcam to take a photo. From here  you can add the buttons, then download to your computer,  email it to someone, print, send to facebook or myspace.  One word of advice when you use this, make sure that the …

Ahh the joys of having the day off and surfing the net! Feels great after having some many none stop go go go days.

Phew has it been a busy start to the year!!!
A few restorations, a wedding, retouching jobs and websites to do and I don’t know where the time has gone!

I just recently ordered some new business cards and thought that I would go for something a little different.
I went to www.moo.com and ordered their mini cards.

I uploaded the above 7 different designs and put my details on the back of the card. Also couldn’t resist the little moo business card holder so I added that to my cart too.
Expecting to wait up to two weeks for the cards that were coming from the UK I was pleasantly surprised when they arrived in just over a week! I am extremely …

I have finally upgraded to Photoshop CS3 after hearing so many good things and having another photographer friend telling me over and over again that it is sooo much better than CS2 which is what I have been using.
And it is so much better! With CS3 I found that I really didn’t have to think too much when it came to editing my photos as it pretty much did all the calculations for me. For example, when applying the channel mixer adjustment layer, photoshop already had done the calculations for …

I thought it was high time to move with the times and give my visitors a little more when they visit my site, so I have integrated a blog that will be filled with random thoughts about software, coding, new work that’s coming and just stuff.
There will be different tutorials available as well in the future.
So enjoy the new look
