Another timelapse to show my editing process from a recent shoot with Jack's Mk6 Fiesta. Slightly longer this time, using three photographs and editing them together in Photoshop. Some further processing in Photoshop and Lightroom to grade the final image.

My first shoot of 2017 and it's a double whammy. Both a set of photos taken at multiple locations AND a video, what a treat for your eyes! I met George through Collide earlier last year and even before this I'd seen pictures of his 350z. I got in touch to shoot the car and learned that it would be up for sale very soon, so seized the opportunity before it went. These are the results!

I was approached by SleekLens a few weeks a go when they asked if I would be interested in trying out one of their products in return for an honest review. I've never been asked to do that before so admittedly I was excited, but before I accepted I did some research.

The final show of the season; Ultimate Stance ended it all where it first kicked off at Telford International Centre at the start of the year. This was the first time I attended, but after seeing Ultimate Dubs earlier on, I sort of knew what to expect.

A few highlights from my trip to Edition 38 this year. Unfortunately Saturday was nothing but miserable weather, it didn't seem to dampen anyone's spirit too much, but my camera time was limited. So these are my favourites, you can see the full set here - http://www.jamietakes.photos/edition-38

I've had a few people ask me questions recently about what gear I use, what do I take to shows etc, so thought it was time I did a quick Bank Holiday post about my go-to-gear for show coverage.

Although ModNats was back in May, I held off posting a load of my photos because I wanted to make this video first. And finally, a couple of months later, it's here.
It features a few of the Collide Car Club guys along with a some others. A massive thank you to Ben for the use of his amazing RED EPIC, it's these shots that make the video, without a doubt. Don't forget to like, share, subscribe and spread the word, please enjoy the video.

Another weekend another car show, this time; Players Classic. This was the first time I've been to a Players event as my first time at Goodwood, I loved it. The venue is just incredible, from the lawns and the paddocks, housing a multitude of cars, to the noises coming from the surrounding circuit and the vintage planes taking off. There was a lot going on, but at the same time it all just felt so relaxed, so organised and so classy.

Last weekend I took my first trip down to Brighton for the Tattoo Convention.
Alongside the convention we also spent some time looking around Brighton and taking in all it had to offer. I made a small video which you can watch below, along with a few photographs you can see in the gallery that follows.

This was my first time attending Early Edition and I wasn't disappointed. After Ultimate Dubs kicked off the show season, this was a great follow up and I'm now even more amped up for this year's Edition 38.

Last weekend I went with Ben from LMS Films to pick up his latest bit of gear. He managed to get his hands on a RED Epic cinema camera with EF mount, it will be used as his main camera for future projects and naturally, we had a little bit of a play with it.

It's been 3 years since I went to a Gymkhana event and in that time there have been a few new names and cars in the game. Most notably Ken Blocks Ford Mustang and his most recent addition, the Ford Escort released earlier this month. Needless to say I was excited to see these in the flesh and despite all the rain it was worth it.

After spotting Adz and his Golf around town and at a couple of the local Collide meets I finally got chance to meet him and set up a shoot. His bright blue wheels stood out from a mile off and are bound to get him noticed wherever he goes, so it made sense to focus on this in the photos.

When I was in school I used to visit my family in Cornwall every single summer. I'd go to all the beaches and sea-side towns, climb rocks, swim in the sea and explore the rock-pools. As I finished school and life progressed the summer visits stopped, and after years and years of neglect it was finally time to make the trip back.

Ultimate Street Car 2015 was amazing this year, I'm so glad I got to go and can't thank the guys (and girls) from Collide enough who invited me down to Santa Pod for the weekend. Having never been to a car show for longer than a day, let alone camped there I was excited and quickly bought everything I might need to survive over the 3 days.
