I have worked with Tyler Turner many times before, and I'm usually on my guard when it comes to her ideas, I must confess, although I'm normally the one managing expectations and saying no, like some sort of strict victorian school master, it's these mad ideas that inspire me. I arrived at Gwrych Castle in Abergele expecting to be faced with a mini battle, which I must confess I love, thats part of the creative process in my opinion. I already knew this was going to be a th

Capturing images with a higher dynamic range can transform ordinary scenes into stunning photographs that reveal details in both shadows and highlights. While multiple exposure photography is common with handheld cameras, using this technique with a drone is less explored. Today, I took my DJI Mini 4 Pro out to shoot a series of five multiple exposure images and merged them into one to create a unique look. This approach can be tricky due to drone movement, but calm weather m

Waking up in the quiet hours of the morning often brings thoughts that linger longer than usual. Around 3 a.m., a wave of reflection swept over me, focusing on the year ahead and the personal projects I wanted to pursue. Suddenly, a question surfaced: why am I living in Wales? What moments and memories led me here? This question opened a door to a journey through time, memory, and place—one deeply connected to my late mother, who passed away not long ago. For about 20 years,

British entertainment has a rich history filled with vibrant traditions like end of the pier shows and pantomimes. These forms of entertainment have long been a staple of community life, bringing laughter, music, and spectacle to audiences across the country. Today, these traditions are not only alive but have evolved, becoming more sophisticated and inclusive. One of the most exciting developments is the growing prominence of drag artists, who continue to captivate audiences

Growing up, Sunday evenings held a special charm. After my bath, I would settle in front of the TV to watch The Darling Buds of May . The show starred the legendary David Jason and, at the time, the captivating Catherine Zeta-Jones. What stayed with me most wasn’t just the actors but the warm, inviting feel of the English countryside that the series captured so effortlessly. It felt timeless, as if it could have been made fifty years ago or just last week. The series revolved

For over 20 years, I had a story in my mind, waiting to be told through the lens of a camera. This story belongs to Michael, a puppeteer who now runs the Harlequin Theatre, Britain’s oldest puppet theatre, established in 1958. As a photographer with a documentary background, I was drawn to this place not just for its history but for the passion that still breathes life into its tiny stage. After years of waiting and missed chances, I finally had the opportunity to capture Mic

In a world that constantly evolves, photography offers a unique way to capture moments of change and continuity. The year 2026 brings new perspectives on tradition and progress, especially when we look at figures like Rev Jayne Coxall, a female vicar who embodies modern faith and leadership. Her portrait, taken in the Marble Church on the North Wales coast, connects deeply with the landscape around her. This connection between portrait and place reveals how photography can te

Stepping into a castle after hours, under a cold, dark sky, sets the stage for something truly unique. The atmosphere itself becomes a character, shaping every frame and mood of the shoot. This was exactly the feeling I wanted to capture for my Life project, Great British Portrait . With model Tyler Turner and Musical Theatre student Jaime by my side, the Celebrity Castle provided the perfect backdrop for a night filled with drama and cinematic tension. The castle’s stone wal

Photographing Gracie was unlike any other experience I’ve had behind the lens. She is a singer and songwriter whose dark, soulful lyrics echo the complexity of her character. From the moment I met her, I sensed she was someone I had always wanted to capture—someone whose presence commands attention without effort. The location I chose for the shoot, the Orme in North Wales, was equally compelling: wild, unpredictable, and full of secrets. Gracie belonged there, as if the land

The magic of classic movies often lies in their ability to evoke nostalgia and romance, transporting us to moments filled with emotion and beauty. This feeling was at the heart of a recent photo shoot between the captivating Verity and renowned photographer Lee M Howard. Set in a secluded cove in north Wales, their collaboration captured not only stunning images but also the beginning of a lasting friendship. The shoot reflects a deep connection to the sea, film, and performa

Natural portrait photography often reveals more than just a face; it captures the essence of a person in harmony with their surroundings. Recently, a portrait photoshoot took place in the sand dunes of Talacre, North Wales, featuring Tyler—a model, pageant queen, environmentalist, and part-time mermaid. This shoot was a blend of artistry, nature, and personality, with moments of challenge and triumph. Here’s an inside look at how this memorable session unfolded. Tyler posing
