Dianne King Jewellery
I was recently contacted by Fife based jeweller Dianne King. Dianne creates one-off pieces of jewellery, often sculptural in form, and largely works with silver and gold along with semi-precious and precious stones.
The photography brief was just to treat each piece sympathetically and show it to it's best, as well as capture some close-up details.
Here are a handful of images that I created for Dianne.

J D Fergusson Sculptures
A few images from a recent shoot of sculptures by J D Fergusson. One of the images is destined for a large print advert in international art magazine, Apollo. I'm interested to see what the designer will do with it.
Exploded View
I took this old lens apart because I'm in the process of making a focussing spot light that I can attach to a studio flash for still-life photography. While it was apart I thought I'd try an "exploded" view shot, a lot of fun to do and something that I will be doing more of (and upping the complexity of). People that have complained about how small the screws in an iPhone are should experience the metallic specks of dust that serve as grub screws in a lens like this.
Jewellery by Wendy Ramshaw
I recently photographed a lot of jewellery work by designer Wendy Ramshaw, these are some of my favourite images.
Photographed in my studio - 100mm focal length, 4 studio strobes, some composite editing
Personal Work
I don't generally show a lot of my personal work (although there is a very fine line between portfolio and personal work). The images below are a selection from an entirely personal project, unrelated to what I photograph in my professional capacity. I'd love to know what anyone thinks.
Plain White Backgrounds
A small selection of work from several recent shoots. As you can see I have been asked to do a lot of images with plain truly white backgrounds. It doesn't allow for much exercising of any creative photography muscle but does look good for on-line product display and catalogues.
