My good friend “Rick The Surfer”, Pease Bay, East Lothian, January 2011.
More 5×4 kodak tri-x magic…as the surfers project rolls on.
Oh I do so love shooting large format film.
Balls to digital…respect to film.
Respect to the sea…respect to surfers.

Hello Folks,
It’s marketing madness time! 200 copies of my HEAD/HEART newspaper were posted out to Creative Directors and Senior Designers in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newcastle, Manchester and Leeds.
In a nut shell: HEAD = commercial/commissioned work and HEART = Personal work.
The paper is a roaring success…portfolio viewings are happening as a result.
Big thanks to Kay Koyama-Gore for the idea and design work. Thanks to Newspaperclub for the print job.
Lets hope it brings more clients and more funky work!

Yet another Harper Collins adventure people. London Town shoot with Steve Boggs, art director guru and Charlie Fraser, the wonder assistant!
This time we were shooting Kay Burley, the face of sky news. Kay hates having her photo taken…but she was a true pro and we cracked on and got some great shots. I think Kay may have even enjoyed herself.
We followed the golden photography rule….KISS…keep it simple stupid!
Many thanks to all. Rob
my biggest and most ambitious personal project in many many years is under starters orders…”scottish surfers”
black and white, old school, film, 5×4 large format plate camera, cloth over the head, gritty, grainy… and the antithesis to digital… hallelujah!
watch this space.
Rob
