ALLEX STELLJA

Allex Stellja Shoot

I went over to the St Pancras Hotel apartments to shoot Australian model Allex Stellja , Id been thinking about shooting with this cyan and green pallet for a while and when I saw the bathroom I thought brilliant , thats going to work really well here , so we gelled up some of the source lighting and then I used some colour tempreture tells to mix it up and this was the result . FB 

We then set up a slightly different feel in the bedroom , I more filmic feel . FB

Buriers - Dim Half Light (Official Video)

Myself and Leo Williams spent a great evening shooting this Video for Buriers last month , it was shot in singer  James P Honeys flat with friends and band members supplying the cast , we decided to shoot it with just 2 extremely long shots and drift round the room taking in different scenes , It was an interesting challenge sorting unseen multiple lighting set ups in such a small environment whilst trying to get some movement throughout the film as well and timing it all to work within the 1 shot . It got pretty warm in there … FB

Irvine Welsh -The Sex Lives of Siamese Twins….

It rocks. It has the darkness, pain and sweat, but the brightness of Miami. Probably the best yet - at least right up there with Skagboys.
