Forever Young Blowing Bubbles With Rachel Horwich (BTS)

Once again I was out recently helping a student with her photography project. Bubbles were a key factor in this shoot with me firing off a bubble gun and various accessories to help create youthful and retro looking images.

BTS with Rebekha Tunney Photography

Last week, I was lucky to attend a shoot done by Rebekha Tunney, a local student photographer with some of her friends. The shoot was at Birmingham Botanical Gardens and worked as a brilliant location for the shoot. We all had a blast and got some great work done as a result despite the humid conditions of the greenhouses. It was very inspiring to watch the whole creative process come to life.

Back In The Gym

It’s good to challenge yourself in many aspects of your life so I decided to do something I haven’t done a very long time. I went to the gym and did a workout. I’m no slob or anything, I’m actually in quite good shape as I found alternative workouts for many years without stepping foot in a gym.

So for me it was stepping outside my comfort zone as working in unfamiliar environments can make you quite nervous. I haven’t been to this particular gym since I was a teenager and surprisingly nothing has changed. Same equipment, same facilities, it was exactly how it was when I left it.

I was smiling on the inside the whole time at how much of big deal I made this in my head and how it wasn’t a big deal at all in reality. So the moral of the story is: Things are not usually as bad as you make it out to be.
