A school that i did some photography for last year has recently used one of my images on it's new website, trouble is they have not credited me on the homepage or next to the image. It's great to see my image online, but it is important that the image is credited to me. I have spoken to the head teacher to ask him to credit my name on the website.
Here is a link to my photo online :

About Me
- Me
- Leeds, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom
- I am a father of two, who has been a paramedic for 15 years and a professional photographer for around 5. That is until recently, from the 1st of May 2017 I will no longer work on the frontline full time. Instead I have made the transition from specialist paramedic to advanced practitioner and will be working full time in primary care. This blog will chart the development of myself from my current role of specialist paramedic to an advanced practitioner. In the last year I was diagnosed with Ankylosing spondylitis. Which is a degenerative condition which affects the spine. While this diagnosis saddened me obviously. It also came as a relief as I had struggled for over a year and had no idea what was wrong with me. So the diagnosis also came with some relief as I finally had a name to put to my condition. It did help me to look forward and consider a new career pathway. I am the first paramedic to work in primary care in my practice area. This is quite an accolade.

CC imaging colour profiles
Spent the morning trying to work out how to use CC imaging colour profiles and FTP system.
Took a while but it will be worth it in the end.
I am sending off some images for test printing.

Weather and model frustrtations
Loving the studio work with Dave, he is very helpful and full of knowledge.
I've tried to get in the studio as often as I can. I took a group of photos for my advertising brief, Dave made some helpful suggestions as to how I could improve upon them if I went back into the studio.
He suggested shooting low key and greater use of hands, also trying to fill the frame more.
I have looked at the following photographers exhibitions and web pages :
I was lucky enough to go to the Avedon exhibition while in Paris, while there I made detailed notes.
Mario Testino

I particularly liked his uptown series of work, here are a few link below, the studio images have a lovely simple lighting style which just seems to work in my opinion ;

Overall I have found Rankin and Avedon have been my main inspiration photographically. Both photographers produce quite differing work from differing periods of time, but both are an inspiration to me.

I looked at a variety of Rankin's fashion work and advertising work. In particular I liked his low key studio work below. I think he used simple, but clever lighting techniques in this photo.
I also love the following photo, but was not sure how he had achieved it.
This photo helped me consider the use of hands in my photography shoot.
The above Rankin image is very similar to this Avedon photo below :
My biggest frustration has been my model failing to turn up or the weather, both of which have meant that approximately 4 attempts to get in to the studio have failed.
Such is life though.
Reflection on video brief
Really stuck for ideas regarding the video brief, which is unlike me as I usually have an instant idea. Find this a bit frustrating as I want to get on with the brief, I enjoyed the editing side of it. As we have practicing with final cut pro these last few weeks.
Started looking at some videos on youtube in the hope of inspiration.
