Abu Dhabi Adventure

For the third year running with again a challenging adventure program...the Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority brings together an international crowd of adrenaline junkies who compete in the 6 day Abu Dhabi Adventure Challenge. Hundreds of kilometers of sea kayaking, mountain biking, desert running and moutaineering - trust me it's tough. I've been involved since the inaugural event building a portfolio of images each year with a book production at the end. I shot the race last december, covering pretty much the full course, brought a production team together to create this sourvenir book, thanks all for your great efforts. Jerry Balloch (tweekr.com) design the book and made this all-telling-summary video of the final ADAC coffee-table-book.

50x Amsterdam

Making Amsterdam my temporary base to work and travel from this summer, I call it a snuffelstage. Some would say the Dutch capital is the creative hub of Europe...certainly a mad hotspot in Holland. Summers are the best time of year - full stop. When the sun is out the Dutchies makes most of it and with the football world cup going on everything and everyone is covered in orange. Not a bad spot to call home!

Got a number great projects lined up and meetings set with big ad agencies. Let's see if there is some time left for a personal project '50x Amsterdam | 50 days in the Capital' - or something along these lines.

Photo reps, Art buyers, Creative Directors, Brand Manager...I shall be knocking on your door.

For now PROOST!

TwoTimesTen minutes

A shoot with Mayssoun Azzam, a respected Arab political journalist and news presenter for Al Arabiya. Mayssoun has become the new face from Nescafe's to highlight the health benefits of coffee and to address the myths surrounding habitual coffee drinking.

Little time to make it work, only two 10-minutes slot's between interviews. Time & cash didn't allow a big crew to stage lighting, so to make it work just find a good working location and go with natural light.

NEW arrival

Proud to announce the arrival of Canon latest Large Format Printer. In conjunction with Canon Middle East, I'll be producing a number of articles about this machine on; What to do with it, what not to do with it, pushing the boundaries of creativity, showcasing what products a photographer can offer and turn it into a cash generating business tool. Software is just installed, ready to test the wide variety of paper options.

Creative input is always welcome...nice ones will be treated with their own produced copy.
