Royston and the Mansion

Two weeks ago, I received a call regarding some fashion work for a client based in sunny Wolverhampton. The client Royston Blythe a very well respected celebrity hair dresser, who wanted to do a shoot for his male entrants into the 2010 Loreal Hair competition. I jumped at the chance to do something new as I have never done specific hair shoot before and headed off to his home on a cold tuesday night packed with my gear and my trusty assistant James! His house was simply unbelievable, huge, incredibly styled and truly breathtaking! We shot for about 4 hours in the corner of the dining room on the dance floor ;-)

The aim was something super clean and fresh! The idea was to be influenced by the very clean style and look of Calvin Klein adverts.....

Here are some of the images. Bowens 750 head above camera right with large rectangular softbox as the key, camera left Bowens 750 with small rectangular softbox as fill. Hair light camera left and rear Bowens 500 with snoot.

Shot on a Canon 1ds 70-200 using Bowens lights as above and Bowens Pulsar triggers!

My First Post

I thought it was about time that I pulled my finger out and started a blog, so those of you that may be interested can keep an eye on whats happening in my photographic world! Over the next few weeks I plan to post up a few archive bits and bobs that havent really seen the light of day since they were shot as well as post up new projects and assignments!

So here its is my first post images to follow shortly.

Cheers
