New 20mm lens in the building 📸

04/01/2024

Minimal Setup 📷🤌🏽

In my world of videography & photography, it seems everyone has to have ALL the gear… multiple cameras & lenses & specific camera bags & lights etc… It’s just what ‘camera people’ do! 🤷🏼‍♂️

I am an advocate of not just following the crowd. Not doing the same or having the same as everyone else. I think it’s probably a stubbornness thing and a willingness to keep some individuality in such a saturated world.

I like to keep it minimal. I like to have what I need, not what my industry suggests I need. And I like to create freely, not create something just because it fits with “how it should be”.

What I’m saying is… you are an individual. Use that to your advantage. Take inspiration, sure! But be a goddamn individual. No matter what it is that you do, your work will benefit from it.

The setup:
Camera: A7iv
Lens: 35mm 1.8
Filters: & /
Gimbal: Ronin SC
Mic: Video Mic Pro
Light: .lighting M9 Pocket Light

Got my ass kicked by Covid…

If you’re from my part of the world, you probably did too. It was EVERYWHERE!! Feeling like a coiled spring, impatiently waiting to recover & start the year properly.

If you’re off to a false start, don’t stress. Just reset when you can and go again.

After-all, It’s only January 3rd 🙌🏼

Studio Dayzzz 🤓 💻

16/11/2023

Home Studio Upgrades, pending…

I’ve come to realise the importance and the benefits of creating a working environment that is comfortable, functional and custom built to fit your needs and your interests. So with that in mind, I’m on a mission to make my creative space a place I want to spend my time even more than I already do.

Stay tuned for the Home Studio Glow-up 😍

That was NOT the ending to our family holiday that we’d planned… but we’re home 🙏🏼

Left Nottingham on Friday Morning, due home 7pm but the storm had other plans and blocked our route. Several failed attempts to drive home and a few hotels later, we are home and I’m back in my creative work space.

Lucky & grateful to be in a position to have kept ourselves safe and warm while we waited.

To my friends and clients, I lost a couple days there. Please bear with me whilst I reset and get going again. Unfortunately my work is not the type I can just do faster, but I will do more than usual in order to get up to speed. I appreciate your patience and understanding.

❤️

Tell me you’re working on holiday, without telling me you’re working on holiday 🍺

Yesterday was the end of an era.

In case you didn’t know… before I picked up a camera and launched Attic 87, I was a full-time musician.

For over 10 years I lived my dream and played over 700 weddings and thousands of other gigs.

Covid changed my path and I made the decision to try something new… Content Creation! However, when I started Attic 87 I still had 67 weddings in my diary. It was important for me to honour those bookings and finish as I started, Professionally & reliably.

Safe to say the past couple of years have been a bit of a slog with the video world being so busy, but still having all those weddings to play at the weekends. 😴

Yesterday was my final wedding. I loved it. It was a beautiful day and beautiful couple! but WHAT A RELIEF! I’M FREEEEEE!!! 😂

I feel incredibly lucky to have done what I loved for a living for the past 14 years and I don’t take it for granted that I’m doing it all over again, just in a different industry!

Anyway. I suppose the milestone just made me want to share some gratitude 🙏🏼

‘Bout last night. 🍾
-
Taking the opportunity to celebrate and appreciate success when it comes my way.
-
It’s not a flex, it’s more an understanding that, in life there are peaks and there are troughs.
-
The troughs challenge you, force you to really assess where you are and how best to move forward. Most of the time, it’s the low points that bring out the best in people!
-
The peaks are a testament to your talent and work ethic and they are to be celebrated and appreciated! So that’s what we did last night.
-
Delighted and grateful to have secured by far my biggest contract since starting out as a creator. 📈
-
The real work starts now.
-
Have a lovely day everyone ❤️

Let’s see if hard work is ready to pay off 🚀

Can’t write this stuff 😂 what a bloody mess

“You just gotta go for it” - could be the best decision you’ll ever make. #motivation #creativevideography

Plan less, DO MORE. - If you are embarking on a new project or setting yourself new goals, particularly as a creative, try not to get bogged down in all that planning & preparation. Yes it’s good to write out your plans and goals & make a list of what you need to do, but NOTHING will beat ACTION. - By simply DOING, You’ll learn more about what is required over the space of a couple of days than you will in a month of planning. - For me, it is day one of action on The Journey to Becoming a Full-Time Content Creator. I have way too many ideas & it’s all starting to feel a little messy & overwhelming. So I’m putting the pen down and trusting my own advice… Plan Less, Do More. - If you read this. Go put your grand plans into action. You won’t regret it ❤️
