This unusual shot idea popped into my head recently, and I thought it would make an interesting portfolio piece. It’s a conceptual shot and I can imagine such an image being used for things like:
- A bike company selling the idea of a frame that’s so light you won’t feel its weight
- A company specialising in sports health food and drink who wish to emphasize that it’s the athlete who succeeds, not the equipment.
Technically it wasn’t easy to produce so it’s a perfect subject for one of my anatomies.

This image of a gymnast, like that of the tennis player, is a composition. The technical issues, however, were totally different. A great subject for another anatomy….

I’ve just completed a shoot that I’ve been planning for a while and I thought it would make a good choice for another anatomy.
Previously I’ve described shoots in which I was working towards a very specific end result – this is the most common scenario for a commercial photographer. In this case however the shoot was less restrictive – I was aiming to get 2 or 3 strong images for my portfolio and to gain more personal experience with underwater sports photography.

I recently had great fun photographing a local skate boarder who was up for a bit of a challenge – to skate in the middle of Valence town center wearing a suit! Here’s a quick run down of the whole creative process.

Had a great shoot this week so I thought I’d share some images and insights.
I organised the shoot with a fairly local professional model; there were no hard and fast plans, we simply headed for the Alps with the intention of getting some mountain lifestyle shots.
Although there were no specific requirements I never undertake a shoot without having quite a few planned shots, so I’d spent the previous week sketching image ideas as they came to me. For an easy-going shoot like this I’m not obsessional about actually getting all the shots that I’ve noted, but they do give me a starting point once on location, and from there I allow the shoot to evolve.

I thought it might be interesting for some of you if I explain how this image of a tennis player diving for the ball was created, starting with the concept and working through to the the post-production.
