T2DTV Episode 4 Porsche 914 race car

It’s going to be quite Type 2 detectives heavy on here as the YouTube episodes we’re producing together are going from strength to strength. In this particular episode I got a bit more involved with the project producing artwork for the race livery to go on the project 914. The brief was to match the […]

T2DTV Episode 3 the 924 makeover

Really grateful to Paul and the team at Type 2 Detectives for getting me involved with their YouTube production. I’ve produced a fair amount of film work for business and pleasure but when you’re working on a monthly basis working towards fairly regular output the enthusiasm of the people you are working for is infectious […]

Mr Penfold X T2D Art Car shot for Hayburner

The last job before Christmas 2023 and I was back at the wonderful Reeve Photography Studio to shoot one of my favourite cars of the year to come out of the Type 2 Detective workshop. A collaboration with the Artist Mr Penfold  who spray painted this whole car in his unmistakable style. What a pleasure […]

T2DTV Episode 2

The second in the series and the concluding episode of the 54 Right Hand Drive Barndoor project. We had a blast filming this one with the project completing at the Type 2 Detectives workshop then heading out on to the local roads and beyond to get some shots of it on the road. Make sure […]

What was on your bedroom wall?

As a kid in the 80’s, super cars? Bikini babes? Chances are a 930 turbo was in the mix somewhere, such an iconic dream car.  I still get a bit clammy behind the ears getting to shoot one, I don’t get to drive them far but a bit of carpark shuffle getting them into position. […]

T2DTV Episode 1

It was fantastic to be asked to help launch the new Type 2 Detectives TV Channel on their YouTube page. T2DTV will feature upcoming builds, road trips, events etc. I created a simple type based logo similar to a period numberplate style and titles to use throughout each episode along with animated logos and captions. […]

Gosh That’s Special or GTS as you may know it

A GTS is a much sort after model for good reason. Production numbers are limited but the options are not and from new everything is included. I guess that cuts the buying process right down when all you have left to specify is the trim, paint and wheel choices. Oh wait, one last bold decision […]

VW Samba in the Studio

Volkswagen samba shot for Type 2 Detectives. These shots were destined for a magazine but over a year down the line it is looking less likely now so I got permission to post up here. I get such a low volume of traffic anyway so if you are reading this I thank you and think […]

1966 VW Double Cab Pickup Feature video

As an accompaniment to a feature I shot for Airmighty Magazine of this sealing wax red double cab belonging to Lee Masters I also put together this short video. The first day of the shoot was rained off which was expected at some point but it was much earlier than the forecast predicted. So we […]

Airmighty Megascene Feature

I’ve been wanting to get some work in Airmighty Megascene for years. If you’ve not heard of it or had the pleasure you will have to trust me when I say the quality is superb, real coffee table journal stuff. Consistently excellent photography and layout and truly international being translated fully into 3 different languages. […]
