Filming a Goalkeeper Camp with TopCatch Goalkeeping and Kick On Academy
When TopCatch Goalkeeping and Kick On Academy invited me to film their first joint goalkeeper camp featuring Leeds United goalkeeper Alex Cairns, it combined two of my worlds perfectly.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me coaching junior football, so the opportunity to capture a day dedicated entirely to goalkeepers was one I couldn’t resist.

New Video: Behind the Scenes – Author Portrait Shoot, Gabor Szaba
I’ve just published a new behind-the-scenes video from a recent studio portrait session with author Gabor Szabo.
This shoot was part of the promotional materials for Gabor’s new book North East of Eden. The goal was to create a clean, expressive portrait that reflected the thoughtful, introspective tone of the book. We kept things simple and focussed, using controlled lighting to highlight Gabor’s features and allow his character to come through in the final image.
