Been a busy week or so!

Most of last week was spent editing and retouching the first story from LA, which was the roadtrip shoot which now has the working title of 'California Dreamin'. It's now finished but is being pitched out to a few magazines at the moment, so is being kept under wraps for a while, apart from showing it to a few ad agencies with whom I've been making a whole bundle of appointments for next week. 

I went to see Mark at Dinosaur in Manchester on Wednesday which is always a pleasant trip as they have some pretty darn cool offices!!! I'm enjoying getting back out there and showing the book about especially with the chance to talk about the LA trip to anyone that will listen!!


I've also managed to retouch the shots that I did for Emma's book on the rooftop of the Bendix building. You can one of the images below... It was quite good fun as I don't normally get the models jumping around a lot, I normally shoot quite posed and still, however the huge amount of light meant I could play a little using faster speeds.












Plus I've finished choosing the pics from the shoot with Michelle, have started retouching those (the first one is to the left) Rather than in the bright sunlight I concentrated a bit more on the lovely light that was in the shade of the building which has come out with a really lovely soft feel to it. I'm really looking forward to finishing the series off. 

I've also edited the 'behind the scenes' video which is just waiting for me to finish all the images so that I can drop them into the video. Will post it when it's finished.
