  1. new website

    February 6, 2008 by admin


    With a little help from the folks at Evrium I’ve been updating my website.

    Over the next few weeks all the images will be optimized and reprocessed so the best of my favourites will get better. I was prompted into doing this after binning my PC and buying an iMac and consuming a few hours of podcasts on Adobe Lightroom. Wish I’d done that years ago.

    you can see it HERE

    December 2007 saw some big storms here on the South Wales coast so I headed down to Porthcawl to photograph some of the huge waves slamming into the harbour wall.

    I submitted one shot to the BBC who nominated it best local photo for December 07.

    Another strange thing happened on this shoot – the following day one of my pictures was on the front page of The Times newspaper, only it wasn’t. It just happened to be another photographer next to me who shot the exact wave at exactly the same split second (see below – that’s my picture on the right).

    Swedish Wedding 3, originally uploaded by nick_russill.

    August 4th 2007 and I was the photographer at my friend Maria’s wedding in Ludvika, Sweden. Nothing could have prepared me for how stressful it was – especially as my new Canon 1D Mk III broke down on me as the bride was walking up the aisle, but thanks to a 5D backup I was generally pleased with the results:
