New Recruit

Simulacra Studio have a new client, introducing Black Truffle, purveyor of all manner of clothing, jewellery, gifts & home ware. We are photographing an array of goodies for their online sales and advertising. One of their shops is based in Covent Garden for those who let their feet, rather than their clicking fingers do the work...

In Session

First shoot for accomplished editorial photographer Claire Collins at Simulacra Studio. It was great to meet her and very much hope to welcome her back.

Essential Selection

Shooting at Simulacra Studio for amazing new furniture designer Arran Evans became an education in design. Cool, clever & classy. Every home should have one!

Star Trainer

Final shoot day for 'Star Trainer' iPhone Application, today saw the culmination of three months work at Simulacra Studio, shooting photography and video on a purpose built set. Its been a long road but after much floor pacing like expectant fathers the App is in final production and fast approaching it's due date.

Zap ! Pow !

Returning clients Next Global Crisis shoot their latest Training Room Video. We can loosely describe these flights of fancy as Superheroine comic book style wrestling bouts, in glorious technicolour, thus putting Simulacra Studio on the map as a fully fledged video filming venue, hey we're not just a pretty face!

Lights, Camera, Action...

Breathe In & Buckle Up

I am now teaching regular photographic masterclass workshops at Simulacra Studio, each session is a different theme, circumnavigating high fashion with a twist. This weekend's workshop put the hussle in the bustle, featuring Custom Corsets and Headpieces. Our workshops are advertised on Meet Up the online networking platform, which links us to many aspiring amateur photographers, students and industry enthusiasts looking to add to their skill base and portfolio. The above image was taken by one of our attendees.

Family Affair

Something Beautiful Happened Last Night!

Well... kind of! The exhibition Something Beautiful opened at Michaelhouse in Cambridge and there was a really good response. Over 80 people attended the event (we lost count after 80... actually, I lost count after 10!) and we good some really good feedback on the work... and everyone loved the venue!

The exhibition runs until June 19th so please do pop down and see it if you can. Michaelhouse has, on average, 2000 visitors per week, which is great- so over the next two weeks our work should reach a pretty large audience- good stuff!

Karlos

The irrepressible Karlos, another late night drinking marvel.

Clowncore

Becky Fury & Matt Reeve's Clownimation begins to take shape with my photos, shot at Simulacra Studio.
Slapstick comic strip movie buffoonery in the making.

Game Over

Unlucky day and a photo finish for this rat race contender, Brighton.

Red Exhibition

Photo of my work being mounted at the Red Exhibition, by Tattooist friend Charissa...the picture 'Happy Birthday' also featured her tongue being skewered by a lit candle!

Animation Ideas...

Initial image and animation draft for a full Clownimation to come....an insight into Chaos Cabaret's contributor Becky Fury's lurid imagination, think female Krusty all over!

The Great Pretender

I don't have many photos of me taking photos, for obvious reasons, but here's one none the less - except I'm actually pretending to take a photo for the purposes of a music video! To reclaim my photographic pride I made sure I used an antique Russian camera...

Underling (2008)

From a previous shoot that remained unprocessed for too long, a fossilised cannister that came out well!

Sinderella

Taken as a light test for a shoot with Miss Kitty Litter, chaotic cabaret cat and potty mouthed performance poet!

Exhibition with the jolie rouge tattoo crew

Pier Pressure!

Taken on Brighton Pier this Autumn as the last rays of sunshine bounced off a bloke's bald head.

Exhibition!

Exhibition Tonight 2nd December I'm showing a few pieces....be there or be (somewhere else)

Think Tank!

Totally submerging my mates is one of my reoccurring hobbies! This photo is taken using the Medium Format 'Mamiya 645', a camera bought from my childhood photography teacher in France!

Antique AnnaLise

AnnaLise, shot using antique Russian camera; this was a bit of a one off as the rest of the shoot was pristine but this way she looks utterly timeless.

Watching Paint Dry ...

Continuation of previously posted photo, painting ... not by numbers.
In comic strip terms, this is what happened next...stripping paint

Old School

Keepin it Old Skool,

Park-Up

Nature strikes again, reclaiming & camoflaging this parked up Brighton bicycle, shot with 'Field 5', a new recently purchased Russian marvel. I'm wondering if someone will come back for it...

One Last Shot

This is the last ever shot taken on the subsequently broken LOMO LCA, dropped in the smash & frey of a French Festival some minutes later...o well, this one came out!

Dreamland... down the road from the pub

I guess it's safe to say If you live in Margate you have to dream, as reality aint that great lets face it. However it was the setting and final resting place for our much loved mate 'Useless' Paul. This was taken down the road from the pub where we conglomerated to collectively drown our sorrows after his funeral.
The day was suitably grey but that didnt stop some more adventurous munters of our crew stripping off for a dip in the sea! Once again & forever big up Useless !
