Jamie won the Junior class at the NABBA North East 2010 and you can see him in contest condition in that gallery. A few weeks later, we met up to do a more fashion based shoot now that his contest season for this year is over. It was Jamie’s first time in front of the camera and he was great to work with.

Look out for him at next years contests, he’ll be a smash hit!

This weekend, i’m down in Birmingham at the NEC at the Bodypower Expo. It’s the second year it has run and it’s bigger and better than before. I decided to come down for both days this year, so more shots to follow.

But for now, here’s my snaps from in and around the show from day 1, a little bit different for me shooting on the run at an event rather than the usual portraits, so a bit of a learning experience!

You’ll find photos below of the crowd, the stands, Mr Olympia Jay Cutler, Phil Heath and Andy Haman to name but a few!

Day 1

Day 2

The NABBA North East 2010 contest took place today at the Frontier Club in Batley, it was a pretty packed house and I was there for the first 3 and a bit hours.

My main reason for going was to cheer on Lee Irving, who was appearing in the First Timers category which he won, it was clear from the moment he stepped on that he was head and shoulders above the competition.

Other special mention goes to Jamie Deacon who won the Juniors category, with a very strong performance which included a front flip!

This gallery is a bit of a variety pack, to give you a taster of my work. Go back to the homepage and explore further to see the full selection from every shoot.

I was down south for a few days and organised to drop in at Definition Gym in Peterborough. It’s a great gym and Lee who runs it had organised some great guys to model for me.

Rob Reinaldo, Ricardo Correia and Rob Taylor were all around and happy to pose for a few shots together.

From a shoot I did with Lee at Altered Images Gym, in Pudsey.

One Sunday in January saw me out in the snow (which seems a distant memory now) to work again with one of my favourite models Dan G. He’s soon to release a new album, with his recording partner Sam and wanted some shots they could use for press purposes as well as potentially an album cover.

We had a good day shooting in some abandoned buildings and along the canal in Leeds, though it was absolutely freezing and my flash triggers went on the blink (fixed now) at times I couldn’t even feel my shutter finger and the poor models weren’t feeling too warm either!

The brief was for a dark, moody, hiphop feel…which was lucky as I only had one working flash!

I shot with Eric back in September 2009 and since then he’s gone on to model around the world and create something of a stir with some of his shoots! Since his appearance on the site of DNA Magazine, i’ve even found that people have been turning up here having Googled for “Who is Eric Rensburg?” … well I could tell you…but i’d have to kill you!

These shots came from a group shoot organised during the day at a nightclub in Middlesborough. Odd being in an empty nightclub in daytime, but great to have some different locations to use!

Some shots from the prejudging session at Leeds Town Hall.
