Wow we had many things to combine together to make things work as team today, on the other hand of photography I had a ongoing issue with my sigma lens as the mount was loose and always mis firing which was really upsetting me ! so amazingly he took it apart with some tiny screw drivers and realigned the gold rings onto their placement and fixed it.

I was very happy :)

Back to photography: Before this we managed to combine natural light in the dimming day in his great big windows using one continuous LED tray with a changeable colour temperature.

The results were epic and I literally was jumping up and down with joy like a lunatic.

I admit before I had some doubts using the artificial light as a source because we were after a specific lighting effect and I am a fussy sod with images !

In a controlled environment things work with team work :)

He is amazingly smart and I envy we don't get enough time to work together. Photographers watch out! :P

Thank you an amazing day

Well to say the least he is awesome for many things but the most he is awesome for coming globetrotting with me to insane locations to see what we can achieve with the camera together. The last time we shot 3 times previous we drove to Rudyard lake which was amazing, a large picturesque lake and we had special use of a 18th century long blue and white boat to shoot with the drone. We got some shots but unfortunately the weather was against us. We live and learn, and on the positive side we learnt from it and had a laugh :)

Other occasion we worked together was in Birmingham in the German Christmas market to see if we could recreate a style of work of a photographer we both admire, Working with natural ambient at low levels of light was challenging but we got some good images with the handy knowledge of my editing :P

We had a little bite to eat during the shoot and strolled through the market window shopping as we went along. It was very crowded which I wasn't very happy about :P but what can you do eh, Luckily that day It wasn't raining so my make up wasn't ruined :D

It was good to work with him again after a while.

Highly recommended by me another shoot to remember.

Me and John have been a mutual force of nature for the past year going head to head together to awesome locations whatever the weather and getting awesome images with artistic merits. He is very understanding and pushes me and himself to really think outside the box to make the most of the scene. We have now done a lot of location work and worked together at my apartment in Bath. I am every time more and more looking forward to shooting together because we always create images we are over the moon about. Thank you for a rewarding experience once again

Until next time :)
