Greece

September 24th, 2008

Rosana and I are off to Greece for 2 weeks on the 15th Oct. As a surprise anniversary present Rose booked two return tickets to Athens. I was stoked and touched with the gesture.

We are going to plan our itinerary over the next week and book up some accomodation. All we know so far is that we want to go to Athens and Crete and possibly one or two other islands.

I am looking forward to a little late autumn sunshine, taking some pictures and enjoying the scenery, architecture, food and drink and hopefully our first successful holiday together (if things go well we will book up a trip to Brazil early next year for possibly 4-6 weeks - serious surf time me thinks).

Countdown has begun!

A few photos from the weekend

September 24th, 2008

This weekend Rosana and I hung out in the countryside and enjoyed the good weather and my mum’s bday. We took a little stroll around the back roads of Ugley Green and did a spot of blackberry picking. Here’s a few pics from our trip, the rest are on Flickr.

The Lee Bay Massive 2008

September 10th, 2008

I returned a few days ago, from what could be described as the wettest holiday in Devon I’ve ever had. We had 1 full day of sunshine and then the rest was either showers or heavy downpours, which put a rather large dampener on the whole thing.

The waves were a mixture of 1-2ft clean lines and 3-6ft storm surf. We improvised and managed to use every board in the quiver from the 8′2, 6′4, 6′2 to 6′0. Richie even got stuck in and bought himself a brand new Tiki 8′4 Megamal and has now he renewed the stoke!

I took my Canon EOS and my new EF 55-250mm telephoto lens and got some pretty nice shots. Check out the a few of them on Flickr.

Hopefully as we move into autumn we’ll get some more sizeable and cleaner sessions, wonders will never cease!

Jamie Stephen Represents

September 9th, 2008

Jamie Stephen Represents is a London-based photographic and production agency, representing a diverse range photographers, directors, and directors of photography.

The company had already embarked on developing their website with another supplier, but for one reason or another the website hadn’t been completed. I was contacted to perform what essentially was a salvage operation to get the site into shape and online asap. I tweaked the visual design, tightening up elements such as typography, layout and colour pallet. I also drastically simplified the front-end code structure and ensured it was more accessible and easily updatable in the future.

The site has recently gone live and I am in discussions with regards to the next phase of development.
