Manchester Conference Photography: Innovate to Elevate Awards and Showcase Event Coverage
I recently photographed the Innovate to Elevate Awards and Showcase, organised by the Centre for Digital Innovation and held in Manchester. The event brought together technology companies, researchers, and innovators working across fields such as artificial intelligence, cyber security, digital manufacturing, and sustainable technology.
Documentary Photography - BP's LiDAR buoy at Liverpool Docks
Another commission from BP as they work on the development of the Mona and Morgan Irish Sea wind farms. This time I was taking photographs to document the maintenance of one of their Fugro Seawatch LiDAR buoys which are surveying the field to find optimal wind turbine locations. The Seawatch buoys run on solar panels and fuel cells using methanol fuel. Although autonomous in the field the buoys need to be towed to shore for refueling and servicing.
Photographing for Art Fund at the Bronte Museum

The charity was established in 1903 and has since supported hundreds of museums and galleries across the country, helping to enhance their collections and make art more accessible to the public.
Mark Radcliffe for the Daily Telegraph
Mark Radcliffe is as nice in person in real life as his radio persona would suggest. Music nerd, City fan, all round good egg.
I’ve photographed him a couple of times, here in Dunham Massey country park in Cheshire with a beautiful vintage VW Beetle for a motoring feature in the Daily Telegraph.

Harassment Outside Abortion Clinics Is Still Happening, But Local Authorities Are Struggling To Stop It
The Home Office has rejected calls to put a national ban on abortion clinic protests, but councils are a long way off tackling the issue locally.
Aaron Heinzelmann of Assa Abloy for Off the Wall, Stockholm
It was great to photograph Aaron for his employers Assa Abloy last week.
Aaron came to the aid of a mother and her seriously ill daughter while at work earning him a hero award and a feature in the company’s magazine. I'm glad to have been invited to be a part of it by Swedish agency Off the Wall. The final shot is a ‘behind the scenes’ for the rear cover of the magazine, thanks to Aaron’s Uncle Dave for sterling work on second camera duties.
The shoot was in Kenn, North Somerset so I had road trip and a stay in a holiday cottage the night before and a refreshing tea on the seafront at Clevedon before the long drive north.

Nick Freeman
It’s not everyday you get to cruise around Cheshire in a Jaguar XK120, let alone when its 28 degrees outside. Happily, they were the conditions when I photographed motoring lawyer to the stars Nick Freeman for the Sunday Times ‘Me and My Motor’ section.
Ian & Andrew McMillan
It was a real pleasure to photograph poets Andrew McMillan and his father Ian for the Sunday Times ‘Relative Values’ feature a few months ago.
