This a favourite shot of mine, taken with one of Puplet's E-1s at an event we photographed back in June. Looking at it now I can see how another light, something really subtle (reflected through an umbrella?), to bring up the right side of his face and body would transform it.

Details I like are the soft diffuse north light from a tall window out of frame left and the blue room at the back lit with a remotely triggered flash. I would love to go and do it again, but better.

I have been asked by an old friend if I would shoot his wedding next May. We were in a band together in the late 90s and used to hang out in France doing extreme sports... I wonder if it will be a bit of a rock and roll style event? I expect that the wine and the food and wine will be fantastic if his parents have anything to do with things, I can't wait!

This shot is so you know what to expect C... just stay calm and remember to enjoy the day.

Improved? Not really, but here is a first post for a while. Not really back by popular demand, but at least the comments box on this should work better than on my old template... I am thinking about what I should do with the old blog(s). Suggestions welcome.

The photograph was my desktop picture for a while, but now I have this picture of Tobias. Here it is for all to see... who knows where it is?
