Watched the amazing Tigers Children's Motorcycle Display Team at the Tadley Treacle Fayre on Sunday. They put on a brilliant display and they were also fundraising for various charities.
Well done Tigers!

A short film we produced a while ago for the 'Save Reading Gaol' campaign. With a sale now agreed, let's hope for a positive outcome regarding the use of this historical listed building.

Had all my camera batteries charged yesterday hoping to film some wildlife in the snow for my nature channel but in Reading it was mostly sleet and rain. Here's a picture taken yesterday morning at Reading Old Cemetery with Junction Arch in the background.

This was the first time I've been to a tractor run so I didn't know what to expect and I nearly didn't go due to the awful weather, but I'm so glad I did! Despite the heavy rain hundreds of people came out for Bobs Christmas Tractor Run, and both children and adults watched and cheered as the festively decorated machines with multicoloured fairy lights passed by. Like a lot of my films this was spur of the moment, and the footage was captured during heavy rain, so excuse the occasional missing tractor and wobbles at the start as I was busy wiping rain from my lens. We were lucky enough to see the parade twice as our route home crossed with the tractors at a later point in the run. The organisers were collecting for charity so I've included a link below with their just giving page for 2022 which has a few more details in case anyone wants to donate.

Feeling festive after filming a wonderful Christmas themed Gymnastic show today 🎄

It's been an intense and exciting couple of months working on the production side of a low budget feature film. As assistant producer, the work has involved hiring crew, taking on the role of first AD, and when needed helping out with other duties on set. The Director, the cast, and the crew were a pleasure to work with and it's been an amazing experience. I'm not allowed to discuss the plot, but here are a few stills I've taken which I have permission to share, and the film already has a distribution deal so watch this space!

So much doom and gloom in the news today. Sometimes getting outside and taking a walk in nature can be a good stress reliever. If you cant get outside today, take a few minutes to watch this short film I made of one of my early morning walks along a local brook. I hope you find it relaxing and enjoyable.

So sad that we have lost our beautiful Queen. An amazing woman, and such a constant in many of our lives. Our condolences to her family and all who loved her. Thank you for your service your Majesty, and may you rest in peace.

A few stills taken from a recent film we made for Reading University Law Society. We had a very enjoyable evening photographing a masquerade ball at the Hilton Hotel Reading. What a great bunch of students, and what a lovely venue!
If you have an event coming up and you would like us to film it for you, please do get in touch for a quotation.

Fire and steel in Newtown, Reading, as last week saw the first pieces of the main gas holder structure removed. I've been documenting the demolition and meeting with local residents to record their thoughts as we say goodbye to this iconic structure. Some love it, some think it's an eyesore. What do you think and will you miss it?

Today marks the first day of meteorological spring, and it's also St.Davids Day; so I'm sharing this short film from my nature channel filmed last year at Linear Park Calcot when the daffodils were in full bloom and looked absolutely beautiful. Happy St.Davids Day! 😃

Merry Christmas one and all!

Here's a seasonal themed Share. A behind the scenes look at some takes from the Robert Zemeckis version of 'A Christmas Carol'. Interesting to see how they acheive the motion capture.
