Adam Brayton Straitline components Promo

The blurb says:

"Adam Brayton putting his Straitline components through there paces up in the Lake District."

Which sums it up pretty well, Inbetween the IXS at Inners and the Ft Bill WC I stayed with Adam for a few days as we had some videos and photos to shoot together for a few of his teams sponsors...

Are a few of these short videos in the pipeline, so look out for them as and when.

Let me know what you think....

Portraits...

My friend Ollie asked me a few weeks ago if I could take some shots of him to start building up a portfolio to send off to modeling agencies, and as this is something I've wanted to try and start shooting for a while I jumped at the chance...

Anyway I had some free time yesterday afternoon so thought I would go and get some photos of him...

Had half an hour up on Dartmoor, then another 10 mains on an industrial estate outside Tavistock before it started raining and we called it a day.

I'm really happy with how the shots came out, so if you want anything like this doing, just ask!

Let me know what you think...

Corn feild madness

I drive past this feild everytime I go and ride/shoot at Gawton and have wanted to shoot in it for months... anyway I had an afternoon free, mate was free, was out that way with the camera after shooting some stuff for new MTB company Drift Mtb (www.drift-mtb.com) so popped in and got some shots...

Bit differant to the normal bike stuff but Been shooting more portraits latley just cant show you all of them just yet.

Anyway off to NASS in the morning, so some hellish good photos going to come out of there...

Enjoy, or not, if not let me know why in the comments...

Few of Josh Bryceland

A good 5 months ago now I went oooop north and stayed with Santa Cruz ride Josh Bryceland for a few days to shoot a Day in the life video for Dirt ( http://video.mpora.com/watch/fpTshnHP5/ ) ( now on 70,000 + views! )

Anyway here are a few shots I didnt put up way back when as Dirt where going to run them, but didnt in the end... so yeh, have some snaps of Josh!

ps: The other guy with him in a few shots is Northen pinner and all round nice guy Harry Heath...

Locals Gawton 1:04

If you read Dirt mag you will have seen in the new issue the article I did ( words and photos ) of all the fastest locals doing the 1:04 at Gawton...

Anyway here are 2 snaps I got on the day that they didnt pick for the article.

From the whole days shots, these are the only 2 they didnt pick though, and when you hand over all the photos to a magazine they always pick all the ones you didnt like, and the ones you loved never see print, and I was really happy with the photos they ran so not to bad...

Anyway One of Adam Lock, and one of Luke Ball ( who leaves for a new life down under on tuesday, was out for his good bye ride today ) will miss ya man!
