No flashes. No reflectors. No photography toys.

That was the deal when Hugh Wedderburn agreed to let me photograph him.

One hour, one camera and a bloody beautiful bit of window light.

Meet Hugh Wedderburn, a master woodcarver working out of one of the most remarkable little workshops I’ve ever stepped foot in.

I spent an hour photographing Hugh while living in London, and more than ten years later, these are still some of my favourite portraits.

One of the first portraits I ever photographed was of a world-class artist. At the time, I had absolutely no idea just how accomplished he was.

Back in 2015, I was living in London, working as a chef and trying to find my feet as a photographer. That’s where I met New Zealand-born portrait painter Nick Cuthell, who happened to be working behind the bar at the same restaurant.

One afternoon, I asked if I could come along to his studio and photograph him at work. What followed was one of my earliest adventures in portrait photography, and a collection of images that I still love more than a decade later.

In this episode of Field Journal, I’m digging through my original photography portfolio and revisiting the story behind these images. From experimenting with off-camera flash and navigating imposter syndrome to discovering the extraordinary world of a professional portrait painter, it’s a reminder of why I fell in love with photography in the first place.

There’s also a rather unexpected story involving a certain famous actor.

FIELD JOURNAL — PART 2 OF 3: LONDON, 2015

Field Journal is an ongoing photography and filmmaking series exploring interesting people, remarkable places, great food, and the stories worth telling.

Low Stakes. High Curiosity.

Please, no licking Ella.

A couple of weeks ago during the school holidays, I took my kids down to Coonabarabran
For the Starfest weekend and it was epic.

With me I took my Mamiya c330 and a roll of Ektar 100.

I actually brought 5 rolls of Ektar. But lets just say doing this with kids was very character building 😂
