I had a great day last month shooting my regular project, The Way We Work for Viva Brighton magazine.
I got to meet and take the portrait of five of Brighton & Hove's home brewers. I even got to take some of their delicious beers home with me.

It's always nice to see how your work ends up being used and i'm very pleased to share this with you.
So this is the end result of a head shot / profile shoot that I did with the lovely Hayley Lawes (who I met back in 2010 when I shot her wedding). She wanted something simple that could be used in a few different ways, so I suggested a few different set ups and a change of clothes to get the most out of the portrait shoot. And I'm so pleased with how it turned out. I didn't think the website would be as image heavy as it is and I think it looks great.
Hayley is so professional and great at what she does and I love how her coaching site really shows her off as she is really selling herself.
This month Viva Brighton magazine features my regular spot called The Way We Work, where I take portraits of Brighton and Hove business people in various trades.
I was out shooting people from Brighton's technology industry, so design agency's, tech companies, media companies etc.
They say a week is a long time in politics and this week seems longer than most.
This time last week I was photographing the Chancellor George Osbourne on a visit to a Sussex engineering firm who I sometime shoot for as part of the EU Referendum Remain campaign. And a week later, we are living in a very different world. If I would have described to him last week all that would happen in the next seven days, I doubt he would have believed me.
A week surely is a long time in politics.
A little while ago I was asked to take a portrait of the head chef Doug, at the zero waste restaurant SILO in Brighton for specialist coffee magazine Longberry. Which is a very cool publication and describes itself as 'An occasional journal of coffee.'
Doug the head chef is quite a character and is doing some really interesting things with food. So if you get a chance, you should really head down there. He was also a man in demand. When I arrived he was just finishing one interview and there was already a film crew standing by to interview him for something else. So I only had five mins with him, but managed to get a couple of portraits that I'm really happy with.
And this is what the finished article looked like in the magazine.
Seeing as it's currently the Brighton Festival on at the moment I thought I'd share a portrait of the Brighton Dome and Festival CEO Andrew Comben that I took recently.
This is another of my portraits which could come under the subheading 'portraits taken in corridors outside of toilets". For some reason I always end up in unusual places taking my shots.
With winter looking like it's well and truly here. I thought I'd show you some portraits of some Brighton Ice Cream and Frozen Yogurt makers at work.
