9ofme – A Photographic experiment…

Most of you who know me, know I hate having my photograph taken. Period. (I know it’s American, but it like its emphasis!).

So, with a photoshoot today unfortunately cancelled and one hell of an itch to try out my Bowens ring flash.. I.. well… err… well..

Somewhere on my site lurks an expression range.

..Why did I tell you all that, why….!?

KrisElliott.com relaunches – new site, new logo, new photography!

Well its been a hard slog, but the deletion of my website (whoops) turned out to be a good thing!

After tearing through websites learning the latest in html and integrating some fancy new flash galleries and a new blog (haven’t you noticed!), it’s finally complete and waiting on my new photographs due this weekend.

It’s a bit of a mish mash, but i’m darn proud of my effort – one day when I can afford it, i’ll get a pro to do it, but for now – this will do nicely.

This site features the most photographs any of my sites have ever had, this will continue as the galleries are actually easy to maintain and update. So enjoy, take a look around and I hope it functions correctly for most of you.

PS. This website has been designed for modern browsers, Internet Explorer may throw a wobbly here and there – so may I suggest you head over to getfirefox.com (for firefox) or even apple.com/uk (for safari) and download a real browser that will enrich your life and make you all warm and fuzzy inside!

The Fetts and Nina @ Underworld in Camden Town

As usual I was hot on the heels of The Fetts at their latest gig in Camden’s Underworld at the weekend.

A cracking gig and a great set of photographs from The Fetts and a following band called Nina (or NINA, I’m not sure!). Didn’t get chance to hang around all evening for the gig so sorry the rest of you who were on after Nina played out.

My website is undergoing a revamp and rebrand so these photographs are hosted on my Flickr site (www.flickr.com/kriselliott).

Brett Halsey under the lens – One shoot, two very different styles of Photography

Today marked the re-vamp of my portfolio and my aim to do at least one photoshoot every week (on the weekend) for the next couple of months.

Brett Halsey was first up. After a brief trudge around Battersea in a vague attempt to do the photoshoot in/around the disused historic power station, we resided to the fact the boards surrounding it were never-ending and did the shoot in a railway arch around the corner.

This was Brett’s forth ever photoshoot and I was determined to jazz his portfolio up a lil. This also led me to play around with the exposures, and consequently ended up with two very different styles of shooting [trust me, you'll notice when you look at the photographs!].

Ethan Evans under the lens

Ethan Evans [website], a young sparky actor underwent my camera treatment on the weekend.

I hope to play against his acting skills in a couple of up-coming photoshoots and produce something really almost Tarintino-esque.

Preview of his set attached, more to follow..

Sackboy – Meet my camera

Talk about the most awesome gift to come my way so far this year. Rob Baker scored me a SackBoy from one of his many exhibitions he gets to attend. Whilst his band (the Fetts – see my previous posts) were recording for their first album in St Albans today – this lil SackBoy sneaked up to the recording desk to pose for his first ever photograph, now my desktop wallpaper!
