Having finally released my new, Photoshop Lighting Effects Course on Sunday (15th) it’s been such a buzz seeing all the positive feedback coming in from people that have purchased and enrolled in it…
I'm back on The HE SHOOTS, HE DRAWS Photography and Design Podcast
LOVED THIS!
So good to be back on the He Shoots, He Draws Podcast, but this time no longer as a Co-Host but as a Guest.
Great chatting with my friends and hosts of the podcast, Dave Clayton and Alan Hess about everything I've been up to in an effort to keep creative since the outbreak of the Covid-19 Pandemic…
From building and photographing Airfix Models to photographing surfers whilst being in the water with my camera inches above the waves...oh, and small thing like selling our house and relocating.
Available Now! My NEW Photoshop Lighting Effects Course
After what seems like an age since I created a new course, finally, I can tell you that my new, long awaited Photoshop Lighting Effects Course is Available NOW, PLUS I’m making it available at a reduced price until mining on Friday 20th August 2021.
I’m genuinely over the moon with this one, and cannot wait to hear what you think of it especially as it’s on the new platform where you can stream or download it and carry on from where you left off. I’ve also added in knowledge checks to test learning plus there’s
You could be helping someone and never know it
Thanks to this wonderful, creative industry I've met some incredible people and made some incredible, life long friends.
There's also many friends I've never met because of sharing content and social media, and today I received an email from one such person; a truly delightful man from the USA.
Reading his email it reminds me yet again why I do what I do and that no matter how I may feel at times (I'm only human) I'll continue doing what I love and sharing with others because for some, as crazy as it may sound, it might be the one thing they look forward to and helps
VIDEO REPLAY: Photoshop Lighting Effects YouTube LIVE
Last Friday (13th August) at 8pm I hosted a LIVE Broadcast over on my YouTube Channel going through a couple of Photoshop Lighting Effects Tutorial PLUS a workaround for the Colour Grading technique I shared for anyone who doesn’t use Adobe Premiere Pro.
The broadcast ran for about 35 / 40 minutes or so and felt great to be back online, seeing and interacting with everyone in the chat.
The set up I use for the LIVE Broadcasts is so good in that amongst many other things, I’m able to bring comments up onto the screen which makes it so much more interactive.
Anyway, if you weren’t able to catch it LIVE, here’s a REPLAY where I’ve also
Why I moved my website to SquareSpace
If you’re reading this it means you’re on my new website so I hope you find it, a) easy to navigate b) responsive and c) that it looks good.
So, before I get into this I wanted to let you know that at the time of writing I’m not, in anyway, sponsored, affiliated or connected with SquareSpace. The reason/s I’ve made the move and feel compelled to let you know are purely personal because I figure if you’re really pleased with a product or service, then you should let others know.
With that said, here’s a little bit of history…

For a number of years, in fact pretty much ever since I started out, my main website had

Photography saved me during the Covid 19 Pandemic Restrictions
It’s fair to say that the Covid 19 Pandemic has affected each and every one of us in one way or another; be it with the loss of a loved one, a friend, or how the restrictions placed upon us have affected our everyday lives.
I can only talk about how it’s affected me, or rather how it could have affected. Now I say ‘could have’ because I know what I’m like and I know, that even with no pandemic to contend with, I’m the kind of person that gets restless and agitated if I’m not constantly working on something new.
As a Portrait Photographer, pre March 2020 it was easy. I had portraits to take and I had my 39-45 Portraits Project which in all honesty, I’m happy to say
EASY Colour Grading HACK in Adobe Premiere Pro and Photoshop
If there’s one thing that has a BIG impact on your recognisable style, it’s how you colour grade your images.
There are so many ways to do this and a lot of the time it boils down to personal preference, however, imagine if there was a really easy way to take the colour from your favourite movie or tv programme and add that into your pictures!
Well, here’s a hack that I worked out to do exactly that with just one click!
The technique first of all makes use of Adobe's
