Welcome to my Blog.
Here I'll be sharing all kinds of things from projects I'm working on, gigs I've shot, people I'm working with as well as a host of other subjects or people who inspire me to stay creative and push myself. I'll be including why I took certain decisions, my thoughts and the techniques behind each image. I hope you find some of this useful.
Thank you - Nick.

I took this photo about three and a half years ago, July 20th 2012 at only the second wedding I'd ever shot. It's one of countless images from that day that are still in my portfolio, and still get most of the positive comments from people. This image in particular is still the one on the back of my business card, the photo that has always made me...

Even if we've seen a hundred of them, a beautiful cake never fails to impress, and wow us with amazing attention to detail and artistic skill. They're always unique, something a...

The blog is back! It's been a while I know but I thought I'd let you know about a friend of mine who's attempting something amazing and incredibly difficult.
Last night I attended a show at Tamesis Dock, an awesome floating bar on the South bank of the River Thames. If you're in London and you've not tried it out I highly recommend it. This cool...

Over the last 14 weeks I've had fun coming up with ide...

Yes, that is a photo of the sky. Let me explain.
I was set the task this week of photographing my idea of happiness which is a pretty big ask to capture in a single image. Just off the top of my head I can think of many things that make me happy, running around in the park playing Rugby with my Nephew, drinking a cold pear cider while sitting in...

Photograph something from 'olden times' was the challenge set by Rebecca Humphreys, a viewer of my YouTube show ' Whiskey and Things ' last week, and as you can expect, this is one that sent my mind racing. The possibilities for this brief are endless, I mean I have pretty much any moment or style from history to pull from and get inspired by.
