Back From A Long Break!

It’s been very busy. The studio has now moved location, the website tweaked here and there, more investment in our equipment has been done… and we’re ready to go again! First up is a new magazine shoot for a German publication, a very well known musical artist and we also just became the official photographer for Predator’s Gear sportswear.

Thanks for your patience, Barefoot fans :) We know you love what we do, and more of our mega-scale photographic art projects are well on the way, with prints available in every size concievable!

James Bond Actress Images are In!

Last weekend Martin met up with Mounia Moula, who is appearing in the new James Bond movie for an epic shoot in Snowdonia!

I Hear Your Voice, Soaked With the Seduction of a Siren

This shoot took place at an abandoned mine with an inland lake. I built the platform beneath the water that Mounia is stood on. Using a lot of care, Profoto lights were placed into the lake itself to light the scene, and in particular make the smoke ‘pop’ when it fell from the lantern. I’m used to hanging off mountain faces, being submerged in water or in some kind of compromised position in order to get my shots, so it’s fantastic when my model is also happy to take a risk on making something unique. How did I get Mounia to the platform in the middle of the lake without her getting wet? That’s a secret :)

From shooting to image production was just a couple of days. I’ve always been honoured to shoot actors, movie directors and other celebrities who enjoy my fantastical view of the world. It’s amazing when I explain the vision I have of them and they go along with me; it take’s a lot of trust to create images like this after trekking up a mountain in the freezing cold!

Thank you to Mounia Moula for believing in the vision and making it come to life with me.

Are you next? Contact us and we’ll see what we can create together!
