Moving Pictures

20 Apr 2010

They said a picture is worth a thousand words. If there's truth in that statement, video certainly has a lot to say, given film (as an example) is captured at 24 frames-per-second. My point?

Nottingham Uni Halfway There Party

Last week I was asked to come to Nottingham and photograph an event. Despite not being payed, I saw it as a good experience to take some photos and improve as a photographer. The event was a success, and despite a few issues I ended up with some good photos of the night.

A Farm Photoshoot

The following shots are an example of both.

Alton Towers

19 Sept 2009
