Iâve been running light painting workshops with Oldham Illuminate and around the UK for many years now â teaching photographers and creatives how to turn darkness into stunning art through long exposure photography. đ¸đĄ Whether youâre a beginner or experienced shooter, these sessions are all about experimentation, teamwork and surprise!Â
From corporate events to festivals, clients and attendees always leave inspired â and with images that look otherworldly!Â

đ¸Â From Cars to Chiropractic â I Love the Variety
One day Iâm photographing cars, the next Iâm working with an amazing wellbeing team â and that contrast is exactly why I love what I do.
I recently photographed @thrivewellnessuk Chiropractic to create a new set of images for their website. Such a friendly, welcoming team, with a really professional setup that strikes the perfect balance between warmth and expertise â exactly what they wanted to communicate through the photography.
A really nice touch on their site is the About Us section⌠click the headshots and they roll over to a fun, personality-led image. Simple idea, beautifully done.
Check out my blog post for more images and info at
Have a look at how the images are being used on their website đ

Really excited to be delivering this upcoming product photography workshop for BIPC Leeds đ
As part of the Start-up & Grow programme, Iâll be running a couple of open to the public hands-on, practical session designed to help crafters, makers and small businesses transform how they photograph their products â using the equipment they already own đąđˇ
Weâll cover:
⨠How to create clean, studio-style product images
⨠Composition, exposure & colour balance made simple
⨠Photographing with confidence and using Ai
⨠My creative approach, pricing work & finding clients
Itâs always a privilege to share knowledge and help people feel more confident showcasing their craft. If youâre based in the Leeds City Council area, this is a brilliant opportunity.
Looking forward to meeting everyone and getting stuck in đ.
These sessions are always full, in the past I have presented a 2 hour session but there have been many requests for me to go further in depth so this time I am running several 3 1/2 hour sessions.

Shooting for Tom Hardman is always a treat â his place is basically a fantasy garage where every piece of rolling art is actually for sale. đâ¨
These latest images feature an incredible lineup:
⢠1926 Rally Grand Sport Type S
⢠1930 Aston Martin International S48
⢠1967 Alfa Romeo 1600 Spider (RHD!)
⢠2013 Aston Martin Jet 2+2 â the ONLY one in the world
My favourite was the 1962 Marcos Martin Prototype
The Aston 2+2 deserves a special mention⌠This astonishing one-off was so ambitious and expensive to build that it ultimately contributed to the bankruptcy of the legendary Italian design house Bertone. A unique piece of automotive history.
Most automotive shoots take a full day (at least!), but Tomâs on-site studio makes everything fast, efficient and still beautifully crafted. When youâre photographing art like this and every detail matters and as a professional it's important to be quick and efficient.
Check out the full blog post over at tspstudios.co.uk and explore Tomâs stock at tomhardman.com/offered-for-sale.
Absolutely loved shooting these incredible machines for Tom Hardman â honestly, his garage is a fantasy garage where every car is for sale. đâ¨
All of these images are of Tomâs current stock, and Iâm seriously proud of how they turned out.
Most automotive shoots take a full day (at least!), but Tomâs on-site studio setup makes everything fast, efficient and still beautifully crafted. When youâre photographing rolling art like this, every minute counts â and every detail matters.
These cars are genuinely something special. If you want to see whatâs available, head over to Tomâs listings at tomhardman.com/offered-for-sale.

It's coming up to my #LightPainting season so I thought I would post some of my shots from this year.
I've got a couple of creatives workshops coming up soon and then I'm out and about all over the country taking part in 'light night's events.

Thanks to @gillypickles for the torch waving đŚ
Just wrapped another dream shoot for classic car specialist Tom Hardman Ltd â and what a line-up! From the stunning 1961 Lotus Elite Type 14 to the legendary Ferrari 308 GTBi and the ex-Barrie Williams Datsun 240Z and an engine swapped Singer, these cars were a joy to shoot.
Itâs always a pleasure working with Tom, especially when we get to go beyond stock shots and capture proper hero and car-to-car imagery. Thereâs something truly special about photographing these machines in motion â nothing Photoshopped, just authentic blur and speed.

Had the absolute pleasure of photographing the legendary Frazer Nash Le Mans CoupĂŠ â 2 CMD for The Automobile Magazine (August 2025) đđ¸
Car-to-car photography is one of my favourite ways to shoot â real motion blur, no Photoshop. Harnessed into the back of my specially modified van, battery powered studio lights, I capture the car as it follows behind. Itâs challenging, a little bit mad⌠but the results are worth it.
This rare survivor has proper racing pedigree, and it deserved something special. So, I also shot a light painting image of it at @tomhardmanlimited âs photographic space.Â
Huge thanks to Tom and his team, and of course to The Automobile for the feature. Thereâs nothing quite like seeing your work in print đ.
It's also a very good read thanks to Richard Heseltine @hezza_hack .

Some jobs are just too good to be true⌠and this was one of them đŤ
I was invited to stay and experience the incredible Moore Life Writing Retreat while capturing everything from quiet reflection to sea swimming.đ¸â¨
It wasnât just about taking photos â it was about telling a story of creativity, wellness, and community. Iâm especially proud of the short film I created, voiced by the wonderfully talented @mooreliferetreats đĽ
Head to the link in bio to see the film and more images on my website you might just spot some more of my work on the Moore Life website too đ

Today's office is a very windy studio which is a first!
Also a first is coming to the brilliant #cadwellpark and not racing.
Photographing 90 racing drivers and a bit of drifting photography for #timeattack
I've been photographing quite a few musicians recently.
This image, amongst others, is to promote #gaynorwilson open mike nights. It's so lovely to collaborate with artists who bring ideas to the table.
More band photography soon.
