A lot of folk have been asking me if I can offer one to one training so the answer is Hell Yes, I’d love to. One of the things that I am super passionate about is helping others to succeed in their business dreams too. So here is what I’m offering… you come to sunny [...]

Photography Farm 09-11 July
Photography Farm is a unique residential workshop held over two and a half days on a stunning 12 acre farm near Gatwick. We set up beautifully styled shoots, show you post production and workflow techniques, cover business, branding & marketing all in elegant but relaxed surroundings. You will each have your own room at the Farm [...]
Why it’s Good to Cringe
Recently, a good friend and photographer showed me some images that he had shot a few years ago. He told me that he was cringing while putting together the couple’s album because they had waited three years before coming back with their selection and meantime his work had, in his eyes, improved a lot. There [...]
Farmers Photo of the Week #1
Now that the Farm has been going for a couple of years, we have quite a few graduates or as we like to refer to them ‘Farmers’. We very much stay in touch when they leave the Farm and have a very strong support network through an active Facebook group and regular meet-ups. One of [...]
Credit Where Credit is Due
As a photographer, I get asked on a regular basis to work or contribute work for free. Whilst doing this constantly would be no way to maintain a successful business, there certainly are times when it can work in my favour. Sometimes there is simply no budget as it is a collaborative project but if [...]

Last month, Adam and I took Photography Farm Elements up to Glasgow for a brilliant few days where we met some really lovely and awesome photographers. On day one, Adam took them all through the ins and outs of flash. On day two, I covered Kick Ass Marketing Techniques but started the day looking at [...]
Farm Elements Belfast
Adam and I traveled to Belfast earlier this month for the first ever Photography Farm Elements. The idea is to take the Farm out to various UK locations and teach some of the subjects that we cover at Photography Farm. We just loved being in Belfast and meeting the photographers that joined us. The very [...]

In March, along with Kat from Rock n Roll Bride, I hosted another Photography Farm. We had a great bunch of photographers join us for and this time our models were the amazing photographer Hannah Millard and her lovely husband Iwan. After getting to know them a little, the idea formed to base their shoot [...]
Interview with Naomi Harris
You know Heineken for the beer right? Well did you also know that they invest in creative arts and have come up with the exciting open community Ideas Brewery? They have just run their third major prize for creatives, asking entrants to focus on the 60+ community. They asked us here at The Farm if [...]
Farm Week
Where do I even begin? Back in Autumn last year, I came up with the idea to do an extended Photography Farm with guest speakers and a range of topics. Not as intense as the three day residential Farm but like a photography pick n mix of classes and talks. I drew up a list [...]
Brooke Davis Workshop at Farm Week
I was very lucky to be able to attend Brooke Davis’s workshop at Farm Week. It’s no secret that I am a huge fan of Brooke’s work and after spending time with her and the amazing Tavis Johnson at the Farm, I’m now harbouring a proper girl crush on them both. I cannot even begin [...]
