A walk in the park with the Nikon D500


If you follow me on social media you'll be more than aware that I've recently been testing out the Nikon D500 for Photography News and Professional Photo magazine, (and I love the camera!) You can read my review in Photography News here.

In early May I headed to Burghley House with Becca to take some tests shots. When we arrived a lot of the gardens were fenced off as they were preparing for a craft event, so I didn't get to shoot at the specific spot that I had in mind, but this lovely pathway did the job.

These shots were all taken in natural light with the D500 and 16-80mm kit lens. As it was a lovely sunny day I decided to test out a glass prism for a few shots. I brought the little prism well over a year ago, so it was nice to finally give it a go. It's a bit of a trial and error job, but I'm so pleased with the results and the 16-80mm lens is so sharp! Get me a D500 kit please!

Eden Anastacia


I love shooting on location so when Eden Anastacia asked me to shoot her first look book for her recently launched blog I was excited to see what she had planned. Eden had put together a selection of outfits based on a festival theme and incorporating her own style. I LOVE what she came up with up!

Slam Dunk Festival Leeds 2016

Festival season is in full swing and this year I started it off by heading up North to photograph Slam Dunk Leeds. As a pop punk lover I always look forward to the Slam Dunk line-up being announced and am never disappointed. Last year I shot both the North and Midlands date, but this year I only photographed Leeds. One thing I do love about the North date is that the main stage is outside, win win!
As I've recently been testing out the Nikon D500 for Photography News and Professional Photo magazine and thought shooting a festival would fit perfectly. All of the shots were taken on the D500 with 24-70mm f/2.8 Nikon lens. Here's some of my favourites...
