Wheel Pros Europe Open House
May 28, 2021
Wheel Pros Europe office in Braintree was the destination. The open day of the new UK office. The stark fresh concrete and powder coated steel of a what had the vibes of a newly built industrial estate gave us the perfect backdrop for photographing the mix of cars that turned up. The draw of this event […]
996 Turbo
May 28, 2021
2003 Porsche 996 Turbo in Arctic silver, 18” turbo 2 wheels. Does it get much better? Shot for PIE Performance. One of their showroom cars which we just had to shoot for an advertisement.
Signature Edition
April 28, 2021
A 1988 Commemorative edition celebrating the 250000th 911 produced. One of only 50 sold in the UK. Gorgeous diamond blue metallic paintwork with non standard trim throughout including headrests carrying the signature of ‘the boss’. In fact the whole edition was specified by Mr Porsche himself with that gorgeous colour choice, short shift kit, sports […]
Porsche 912/6
December 21, 2020
Cool restoration job by PIE Performance of this 912/6. Meaning this car started out as a 912 when it left the factory but has since been turned into this awesome looking ducktailed flat-6 powered Carrera RS Looker.
IROC Tribute
December 21, 2020
A tribute but not a replica as such. This Porsche 911 is actually a wolf in wolfs clothing as it has quite a comprehensive racing history under it’s belt. It now sits in it’s International Race of Champions guise and is used for both trackdays and street use. Looked after by PIE Performance in Suffolk. […]
Models in the snow
December 4, 2020
Well these went down better than I imagined they would. We had a small amount of snow, not really enough to go out in a real car though so I grabbed a couple of models and headed for the wheelie bin. A couple of the Porsche 964 images have been used in advertising campaigns since […]
Baythorne Wines
November 28, 2020
Local wine emporium Baythorne Wines wanted some interior shots of their newly finished shop to use on their website and social media. The shop itself is in the grounds of Baythorne Hall alongside a farm shop, cafe, antique centre and garden shops. Well worth a visit if you’re in the area. The antique and retro […]
964 Porsche Hot Rod
November 28, 2020
Here’s a short film I filmed and edited for PIE Performance to use on their social media channels of a Porsche 964 Hot Rod build.
Hot Rod 964 Porsche
November 10, 2020
Loved shooting this 964 Hot Rod at PIE Performance. It’s a had a few upgrades including 3.8 engine, LED headlights, and some subtle body and bumper mods. Bad ass car. Here’s a link to a video I shot of the same car for social media use, or watch it on YouTube.
Oilcooled 2020
November 6, 2020
It’s amazing how this year seems to have flown by despite not actually doing very much at all. It certainly doesn’t seem like a whole year ago since the first Oilcooled event at the now famous Porsche themed nature reserve Boxengasse. You have to be fully committed to put a gathering of any sort on […]
New Beetle V5 Sport
October 23, 2020
A special edition Volkswagen Beetle with a 2300cc V5 engine, 170bhp. BBS delta alloys, full leather trim, 0-62 in 8.7 seconds. Making the most of this autumnal backdrop.
Classics at Glemham
October 15, 2020
We were invited by PIE Performance to join them on their stand at this year’s Classics at Glemham event in the grounds of the magnificent 16th Century Glemham Hall. We arranged to meet on route with some of the PIE team and fellow customers on the way to the venue. There’s nothing quite like a […]
Cayman GT4
October 5, 2020
Bit of light painting on this Cayman GT4 over at PIE Performance again taking photos for their social media and advertising.

A few product shots for PIE Performance and their range of PPT Tuning products. For use on their website and advertising. A simple set up of lights with the products on black acrylic. Ignition parts shot individually and in their kits.
It’s been a while…
September 7, 2020
After my last ‘keep creating’ post I actually ignored my own advice partly, so apologies for the lack of updates. I hope it encouraged some of you to get creative and try new techniques out though. There were several DIY projects pointed out to me that needed doing and it seemed like as good a […]
Keep Creating
April 27, 2020
We are over half way through what we believe to be lockdown as we know it, protecting ourselves, our loved ones, our health service and key workers from the coronavirus pandemic that has taken over the world. The news can be addictive at a time like this, it’s human nature to obsess over information when […]
Washing Cars.
April 16, 2020
With Corona comes the lockdown. With the lockdown comes an opportunity. An opportunity to get your garden sorted and clean your car apparently. A walk through our village looks like preparations are underway for a village of the year judging, or a car concours event on the village green. Spick and span to say the […]
Derelict Deluxe out in the winter sun
February 19, 2020
I had the chance to shoot this super cool 23 window Samba for Type 2 Detectives out on the road on a beautiful Winter’s day
Stock Photography
February 19, 2020
Recently I’ve had the pleasure of shooting some of the stock Type 2 Detectives in Burwell have in their amazing inventory. They specialise in mainly Volkswagen vehicles and have some of the finest examples for sale Europe. There’s a really broad mix of original paint, low mileage stock cars through to some amazing custom examples […]
Gorgeous Ghia shot for T2D
February 3, 2020
Another intermission film for Type 2 Detectives. The Intermission series is a showcase of stock cars for sale to be used as an break in your daily lives. Sit back, kick your shoes off and relax for a minute….
Oilcooled at Boxengasse
February 3, 2020
Passion noun – strong and barely controllable emotion. “a man of impetuous passion” I can’t think of a better phrase to describe the man behind Boxengasse. To be passionate about something and then to deliver this passion creatively as Frank Cassidy has with his Boxengasse project is on a whole new level. With tons of social […]
KG at Goodwood
February 2, 2020
Why hold an event and exclude cars/people? And what is a KG? KG refers to a transition in the history of Porsche that happened in 1972 when it became the public limited company it is to this day (Porsche AG) as opposed to the limited partnership it had been before (Porsche KG). It was the […]
Silverstone Classic 2019
January 30, 2020
For anyone thinking of going to the Silverstone Classic event, a couple of tips…. comfortable shoes, wet weather clothing, sun cream. Each year we go there seems to be at least one day of extreme weather. This year it was a wet Saturday which added a lovely element to spectating and photo taking especially facing […]
Type 2 Detectives
January 3, 2020
One of a series of short films I have been producing for Type 2 Detectives. The Intermission series is a showcase of stock cars for sale to be used as an break in your daily lives. Sit back, kick your shoes off and relax for a minute….
Hot Numbers
November 29, 2019
Hot Numbers Roastery is the heart of a coffee centric enterprise roasting beans and making loaves in house. It’s owner and founder Simon Fraser is a fellow automotive aficionado so it was great to be able to go and see his facility in action. It’s rural location is perfect for a car meet with a […]
2019 Donington Historic Festival
September 10, 2019
If you’re a regular reader here, you’ll already appreciate the haphazard nature of my posting. Not everything is necessarily in date order and this is one of those events. Right back in May, I spent a day at Donington for the Historic Festival. My main focus was again on my good friends Steve Wright and […]
Dragstalgia 2019
August 22, 2019
With given access to a time machine the choice of destination is a fairly difficult one. First you’ve got the time period, then the location. A quick search on youtube for ‘drag racing 1960s’ confirms this to be one of my top choices of period. As for location pretty much any Drag Strip in the […]
Porsche Club GB KG Event
August 20, 2019
Proper post to follow for this amazing event, but for now here’s a little video of our journey and the all important parade laps round Goodwood Motor Circuit!
Auto Finesse Chill and Grill
July 22, 2019
Sunday morning…. nothing to do…..fired up instagram and saw a post by Sam from Two Gun Salute saying he was heading off to the Auto Finesse Chill and Grill. Looked it up and what a result, only forty minutes away in the lovely village of Barrington and what an awesome event it turned out to […]
