Day Zine (finished!)

Thursday, January 19th, 2012

I was very pleased to be part of the Day Zine Project, here’s a little bit of information about it:

Day Zine is an art project and zine themed around the time of its making, a sort of creative newspaper or time capsule.

Each issue sees the collaboration of a handful of exciting creatives who come together to form a one day workshop. This eventually results in a limited run printed zine.

The work created is inspired by the characteristics of that 24 hours; so everything from the location, weather, news or conversations can effect the content. This makes each issue, as each day is, inherantly unique.

Day Zine is curated by Thomas Coombes & Tessa Edmondson. For further information on the project or if you’d like to be involved in the next Day, get in touch at info@dayzine.co.uk and follow @_DayZine for regular updates.

The first issue ‘Day One’ is available, order a copy here.

Chair.

First photograph that isn’t of wallets or handbags of 2012.

I awoke this morning to the most beautiful light – so I decided to go for a walk. It took me around 30 minutes to drive to the Hills surrounding Birmingham. On my walk I came across this bench with newly placed flowers, it filled me with melancholy but also with a weird happiness.

Street.

Friday, December 23rd, 2011

Earlier this week I was commissioned to wander the streets of London and create 100 portraits. I thought it’d be easy…turns out…not so easy. Anyways, while making these portraits I got chatting to some really nice people and after my initial; “Shiiieeeet…what am I doing?” I think I produced some interesting street portraits. The images above are some of my favourites. These guys really know how to dress for the cold!

Old negs…

Thursday, December 8th, 2011

I came across some old negatives that I thought I’d lost when I moved to London, the above image depicts my younger brother being told off while we were out having a meal. This image instantly transports me to the time when I was in similar situation to Jamie!

Street portraits.

Sunday, November 20th, 2011

Here is a portrait from the Day Zine project that I’m involved in. Me and Tom set up a white sheet on a wall and asked people to pose while we asked them questions, we then made the portrait on the basis of their answers. That sounds a bit convoluted - but hopefully it will make sense in the final edit/print!

Day Zine.

Saturday, November 19th, 2011

Today I’ve been shooting for a project that I’m involved in called Day Zine, basically it’s a zine about the day of it’s creation – whether that be a feeling or a news headline, taking an intangible thought and making it a reality.

Joe.

Thursday, November 3rd, 2011

One of my best friends, Joe, popped round for a cup of tea after getting his hair cut by Barry the Barber. He looked so sharp that I decided to shoot a few frames.

Cheers mate.

Wednesday, October 12th, 2011

I’m not going to name any names (Joe Mac) but a friend of mine stole one of my hard-drives and…kept it…for two years. Last night I finally got it back. While trawling through images, memories and places that I haven’t thought about or looked at in years – I found this portrait. This is from a project I did about Men with Beards. It was a street lighting technique that I later applied to the Kids series, it reminded me that I need to go and have a little more fun with my projects. I love this portrait and his beard.

Nike.

Thursday, October 6th, 2011

I was asked by HarrimanSteel for Nike to create a set of portraits that showcase their creation of the ‘Cheer Me On!’ stickers that were used as part of Nike’s Run to the Beat half marathon promotional material. This was one of my favourites, I won’t post the one of the guy with bleeding nipples, though!
