2 day Travel Photography adventure in Magical Marrakech

I went there with dreams of colour and life... but its was SOOOOO Hard to shoot there! Any of you that have been there, know that taking pictures in Marrakech is far from easy... and not the romantic holiday destination you would think of ... so armed with a hulking great big Nikon DSLR and a long lens, i hardly blended in... and these people are hyper sensitive to cameras! You either get a "NO PICTURE" and a hand raised over the face, or a hand out asking for money the second they see you!! So ....with only being there for 2 days I had to adapt quickly, and learn to be very quick to seize any picture opportunities ... Its still a great place to go to though if you like a challenge!! ;) Enjoy, share and rate please :) _0044.jpg _0045.jpg _0046.jpg _0047.jpg _0048.jpg _0049.jpg _0050.jpg _0051.jpg _0052.jpg _0053.jpg _0054.jpg _0055.jpg _0056.jpg _0057.jpg _0058.jpg _0059.jpg _0060.jpg _0061.jpg _0062.jpg _0063.jpg _0064.jpg _0065.jpg _0066.jpg _0067.jpg _0068.jpg _0069.jpg

Food Fight at Verru

Yesterday i was back to the amazing Verru restaurant in London's Marylebone Lane! Except this time for some slightly different 'profile shots' of the owner, 'Andrei' and his merry band of men! Andrei said he didn't want to have boring, serious portraits, so wanted to try something a tad 'different'.... at the mere mention of a food fight, the boys seemed ready for it... as you can see.... this is all in jest and their obvious great relationship is plain to see!! As i've already said.... the food here is amazing and so are the people.... get down there!! 2012-11-21_0002.jpg 2012-11-21_0012.jpg 2012-11-21_0006.jpg 2012-11-21_0005.jpg 2012-11-21_0004.jpg 2012-11-21_0003.jpg 2012-11-21_0009.jpg 2012-11-21_0010.jpg 2012-11-21_0011.jpg 2012-11-21_0008.jpg 2012-11-21_0007.jpg 2012-11-21_0013.jpg 2012-11-21_0014.jpg 2012-11-21_0015.jpg

The Key to commercial portrait photography

I often do Commercial Portrait Photography of business owners and their staff ... and very often they want to be seen as serious, upstanding individuals... but this doesnt mean you can't use the surroundings to add some colour and a bit of a twist! Here are some recent profile shots I did for a business owner ... I tried to have a bit of fun with him in the environment we had... hope you like the images.
