Automotive Photography Sussex

Automotive Photography Sussex takes place most weeks, however, we’ve been shooting last week at White Box Studio in Horsham, West Sussex. It’s the largest single drive in automotive studio in West Sussex. Specifically in Horsham. It’s an amazing space, along with a model room, portrait photographic bay and a 1000sqft infinity cove or cyc wall that some call them. The infinity cove is over 180 degrees and has a fully mechinised floating ceiling with flash lights above to create that perfect horizon line along body work of vehicles. We photographed this BMW M4 just before a client decided to sell it. He brought a Tesla by the way, a true beauty. However, this M4 was a true beast of a car. Beautifully finished with cream leather interior. It was in showroom condition and sounded so sweet! The car spent the day at the studio and left us with many images to finailise in the post production suite. After any hours sifting through the images capture we decided to use the 10 images mixed into this post. If you’re a keen photographer, fancy shooting a car, are a car photographer or have a car that’s your pride and joy, you need […]

South Lodge Wedding

South Lodge Wedding …. this place!! Wow. So this wasn’t my first time shooting at this fantatsic venue, but we’ll come back to the venue in  amoment. Mid week, a Wednesday, yep that’s right, it’s becoming very popular to get married mid week these days. I love it. This was the wedding of the beautiful Lucy & Ashleigh. What a great couple, very down to earth, up for a giggle. It came across vividly in the photos, which I adore. The day started off at Lucy’s family home in Haywards Heath. Greeted with smiley faces and to my suprise everyone was so calm. Letting the bride know things are under control always seems to help. However I didn’t need to. Tom, (Lucy’s lad), was such a great help, nothing was too much trouble and being taller than myself enabled us to manover the wedding dress to heights I couldn’t reach for photos. Cheers Tom! The whole family were so relaxed. Make up and hair was under way. I fell into a nice relaxing environment, knowing the makeup artist had things chill. Starting with details of the preps, following with some wedding portrait photography and overalls. Always good to get the […]

Germans Ermičs creates Rainbow glass cabin for Instagram at Cannes Lions 2019

Latvian artist Germans Ermičs has creates a Rainbow glass cabin for Instagram bringing social network’s colourful gradient to life. The glass cabin is a collaboration between the two at this years Cannes Lions 2019 festival of creativity.   Reconstructed in Cannes on the beach outside the Majestic Hotel, the 50sqm structure marks the first time ermičs has worked at this scale. The designer is known for his work with colored glass which uses a similar gradient style with strong pigments that fade to clear. Creating furniture, tables, plinths, tanks and mirrors from the same mediums. ‘Where the Rainbow Ends’ – (the title of the work) – Ermičs has replicated this gradient effect with 360-degree perspective, allowing visitors to travel to the ‘End of the Rainbow’. Inside the cabin you can find light effects by london based urban electric project rainbows bouncing around the room. Spectrums of reflected lights beam onto the walls and floors., hosting a white table at its center. The designer’s ombre glass chair sits tucked into the far corner. The lights move to the track of french production duo domenique dumont. When questioning Ermičs regarding the commission, the idea was to inject the Amsterdam based artist signature […]

Fancy food photography in London

This year so far has been pretty amazing, I’ve had the privilege to travel round London shooting Fancy food photography and creating amazing content for foodies social accounts. I love food, but not always photographing it on an empty stomach! It’s been amazing working with so many food producing companies and restaurants, such as Tom’s Kitchen! It’s suprising how much variety there is in London regarding food, but being a multi cultural I don’t suppose it really hit me until I’d travelled around to see. Most of the images below are from coroprate events and it’s always great to get some amazing details of the food supplied to the guests. Such vivid colours and textures, ways to present the food and serve it.   Have a look below and try not to salivate, I struggled whilst photographing this amazing food in London. https://tomskitchen.co.uk/   Some inspiration too 😉 https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006t1k5   Here’s a link to see some of my folio work on the food I’ve shot in the past. https://www.barneywarnerphotography.co.uk/food/   And a contact me link if you have any sessions you need capturing, I’m always around and love coming up to London for Food photography. https://www.barneywarnerphotography.co.uk/contact/  

Reigate Manor Wedding

Reigate Manor weddings…what can I say. A lovely manor house sitting over the road from Reigate View Point, simply amazing. The Bridal preparations today started in Zoe’s auntie and uncles place in North Holmwood. Such a welcoming bunch and I knew this was going to be a great day of celebrations. The bridal preps started at 11am and the heat was creeping up. I was feeling so hot already in the blazing morning sun. Although tomorrow is set to be even hotter! Zoe and the bridesmaids looked amazing, a beautiful white dress and blue bridesmaides dresses with flower girls Chloe and Lexi and a page boy Tommy. All went smoothly and I left the bride and family taking photos and selfies to head to the church. I was the first there, couldn’t believe it. North Holmwood Church was a grand old place, with dimmly lit arches. I had to stay at the back, which some Priests and Vicars insist. Cona (the groom) arrived with the guys and we got underway capturing some of the preps for the chaps. He’s 6’8″… and built. His brother Preston is similar height, and Dave the 2nd Bestman was again taller than me. But at […]

Biscuit photography with Percys Bakery

Biscuit photography with Percys Bakery was always going to be amazing. I love photographing food, especiually when I get to nibble some of it 😉 A while back I was approached to produce a refresh of imagery for Percys with social media and web in mind. They have great photography already and this was to compliment it, if not make it a little more up to date. I was excited. Not only did I know I was getting a lot of sweet food arriving but this was Percys Bakery. They produce some of the most delectable foods, especially biscuits! These aren’t any old biscuit, honest go buy some and find out for yourself. Percys are in places like Harrods and Selfridges, but hey are breaking out into stores near you soon as they are now stocked by Sainburys too. The new imagery was with some old favourites, as well as some new product. The imagery was to be used alongside the new lines in the new stores. As well as social media. @percysbakery When the product arrived, it was rather overwhelming. So much arrived. My eyes were popping out. With something from every line they produce I knew I’d have […]

Food Photography in France

Last year was a banger for me. I had the privilege to travel to France with video friends for Facebook and produce some Food Photography in France. Ok it wasn’t strictly French food, but look it’s beautiful! One night, Instagram flew in a star chef. He created such magnificant master pieces for VIPs to enjoy. I’ve added a couple of dishes below. We travelled to Cannes and as past of the ten day shoot, it was requested I photographed a VIP Instagram dinner that was set up just for this particular event. It was amazing! White was the theme, with white tables and chairs, candelabra, linen etc. Everyone was so suprised and there a lot of phones emerged snapping away at the food and surroundings to record the moment. If you fancy going to the event next year, have a look at Cannes Lions link below; https://www.canneslions.com/
