Zine / Fish n Chips wanted to get an inside look at what really goes on during Amsterdam’s Legendary Gay Pride Boat Parade. That’s why we sent our intrepid photographer, Benjamin Arthur, onto one of the boats to find out. I have to admit to feeling a bit nervous about joining one of the Pride…
BritPhotShot of the Month There is an abundance of beauty in Amsterdam but using it as a photographer to create striking images with people can be a challenge. Couple of tips here from this recent Walkabout I did in town. As we were walking around I noticed this line of olde worlde shop signs and…
Technical details; Nikon D700. AF-S Nikkor 50mm (1.4) @ f/2.8, ISO 200 @ 1/3200s I was lucky enough to shoot a client event in Los Angeles last month. After two days stuck in a hotel conference room, I was glad to land in sunny, windswept Malibu where I caught up with an old school friend…
Most events have a super abundance of yummy food for attendees and in between shooting the participants and event speakers I sometimes sneak in a food shot or two. It helps add some colour and, as with weddings, details help bring an event to life. I thought I’d share a few of my favourites and…
Personally I’m not a fan of zoos although I do recognize that many of them do important work in helping keep certain species alive – even thriving.

Now I live so close to the Amsterdam Forest (Het Amsterdamse Bos!) I am going to start shooting there more and more. And what’s not to love? There are miles and miles of walking paths, bike paths and riding trails. Millions of trees and meadows filled at this time of year with wildflowers. This shoot…
Our online lives are almost as important these days as our offline ones. Some people may not even see a distinction between the two anymore. Its so important that you have the right social media profile and a good set of photographs is really important for that. That’s exactly what Ronan wanted from our shoot…
Danny – now Lord – Finkelstein of Pinner came and spoke at the SSON event in Amsterdam this week. He was amusing, interesting and intelligent and told a great story about his interaction with the lift attendant in HM Treasury just before the recent British General Election. He was everything you’d expect of an alumni…
Another big event this week. The Shared Services & Outsourcing Network (SSON) conference in the Beurs van Berlage. A super fantastic 2 day event with inspiring speakers on some fascinating topics. Also I personally love the light in the BvB – best conference venue in Amsterdam in my view! Here’s my pick of some essential…
Another year… another incredible Vestingloop in Den Bosch. This year, my client, Brand Loyalty were the main sponsors and of course it was bigger and better than ever. What a fabulous day which I hope has been captured in these images. Just a few personal faves from several hundred which captured the essence of the…
