Professional Photographers Workflow
If you’re interested in what happens after a photoshoot, the stuff you don’t see… this is the video to watch!
In all seriousness, this stuff behind the scenes is mega important.
I had a phone call with a family member who was photographing a friends wedding last year.. I was also photographing a wedding. On a break I checked my phone and saw 5 missed calls from said family member. I called him back and he asked me a question…
“I changed lens towards the end of the ceremony, now when I look at my images I can’t find anything before the ceremony…”
My question back was “have you changed out the memory card for a fresh one??” he had not. So he did, and I arranged to meet up with him the following day.
Turns out he’d been victim to a fake memory card, which had corrupted and was overwriting old images when the card became full. So the whole bride prep and 90% of the ceremony was now gone forever.
The message here is he’s not a professional, and he didn’t have a professional camera.. a camera that has two memory cards. He put the images he had on his 8yr old laptop, and he was done.
This is very different to what myself and other professional photographers do.

Canon CPS Event - Chelsea Football Club
I was lucky enough to be able to attend a recent Canon CPS event about low light photography. This involved two fantastic guest speakers, being able to try out all on the new Canon gear. Then finally a photo shoot of an amazing student band from London.
Here are a few of the images from throughout the day.
Cosby U16 Foxes, Girls Football Team
A friend of mine manages the under 16 girls football team over in Cosby. He asked my advice about taking a group shot with his point and shoot camera, in the dark, on the pitch lit by floodlights.
I knew this would be a little challenging so i put myself forward to do the job. Armed with a couple of small flashguns, stands and umbrella's i started shooting.
Adam Bowler Music
I had the privilege of shooting my good friend Adam recently.
He's a very talented singer, guitarist and songwriter. He had booked out The City Rooms in Leicester to shoot a promotion video, so I went along to grab some stills and make them look a little different to the video.
Our friend Doug was doing the video with his new kit so I also grabbed some photos of him for use on his upcoming website as well.
