Everything you see here are original works from quite a few photoshoots. I've been shooting for about six years. Not a professional but not quite the amateur either. As always I'm somewhere in the middle. I have had a lot of demand from models who are wanting to be viewed in stronger roles enabling them to impose their personalities and not the same old same old glamour. My sets are built around femme fatale, film noir and crime scenes where the evil one gets their just desserts!!

Most of my work runs a bit dark; I've always been a big admirer of Guy Bourdin John Stoddart, Melanie Bagshaw latterly Anja Niemi and those photographers who have challenged viewers with their images. I love the whole good girl gone bad twist and my models have found the shoots great fun.

The goal is to tell a story (or at least part of it) and NOT to endorse misogyny or violence. At the risk of being pretentious this is all about art and the image. Everything else is pretty much irrelevant. Luckily the very talented models I've been fortunate enough to work with get this and have helped me in my photography efforts. As I said many have been amateur and a few paid commisions. I have photographed across the UK. Any model who would like me to er...um..shoot them please get in touch

It seems silly to have to say this but: no one was injured or harmed during the production of these somewhat morbid and provocative images. If anything, we tend to laugh alot and have real conversations about non morbid things during a shoot. In fact they are really good fun! Thats the point isnt it??
Interests
The last journal entry was to see if any was "alive" and listening out there. I am relieved that they are! Thanks for the comments

As a follow up to the post about th riots I cant say how chuffed I was to see the guy who burnt down Reeves Furniture shop in Croyden got 11.5 years. I was less chuffed to learn that the system had let him out several times allowing him to do it in the first place! The risk to life let alone property was awful. Why do they do it!

Anyway every looney group on the planet is making their way for London to distrupt the Jubille, the Olympic, or the Jubilympics....heavens give me strength! Why do a tiny majority want to harm the pleasures of the overwhelming majority to fulfill their narrow aims!

Please respect the models at all times, without their patience, beauty and dedication there would be no art.

As long as people are going to call you wicked anyway, why not get the benefit of it? It liberates you from convention.

Your obsession with beautiful murdered/dead women is very very fascinating if a little grotesque, nice work.

A nice variation would be a lovely female executed while bound and gagged -- eyes closed, body utterly limp. Naturally the body would have to be searched and hauled off to be stashed someplace...
