Heavy Artillery Crew - Haters Show
Heavy Artillery’s Haters Show from Garage Studios on Vimeo.
Last night we took the pop up studio down to the Heavy Artillery Crew’s new art exhibition called Haters at the Prescription Art Gallery in Brighton.
Thanks to all those who made it happen, the HA crew for being so welcoming, Mary & Dave for being the best assistants / clip board girl and everyone we took a photo off.
Here is the video of the shots and they will all be up on the site next week some time, so watch this space.
Brighton Camera Fair
Yesterday it was the first ever Brighton Camera Fair. Photographers and camera collectors of all shapes and sizes went to Brighton Race Course to look at the biggest collection of cameras under one roof we have ever seen.
There was a fantastic turn out and the place was packed with people bargain hunting and admiring the cameras on sale. There was everything from the latest top of the range Canon Digital lenses to large format big wooden boxes that the photographer has to hide under a cloth to shoot and every thing, and we mean everything in between.
The fair was part organised by Paul from Clock Tower Cameras and he told us that the fair was such a success that they are planning on running a few next year as well. So watch this space as we’ll keep you posted when we know more.
Here are a few snaps from the day to give you an idea of what it was like:

Garage Studios at Brighton Freshers Ball
Last friday night we took the pop-up studio down to the Freshers Ball at the Brighton Centre and set up in the foyer. From 10pm until around 3am we shot portraits, group shots and general craziness of those in attendance.
We used a real simple lighting set-up, as we didnt want to take up too much space and found a space to put up one of the Bowens 500w with a beauty dish on it, simple, speedy and no disruption. We probably got through approx 500 shots in that time period and met some ace people who were kinda amazed that we were giving these images away lo-res for free, we aim to have a gallery of all the shots up hopefully this afternoon or first thing tomo. If you are in the shots, and would like to get a print, or a hi-res printable file then we will add a way to do this onto the site real soon.
We are really enjoying this approach now, having done GangUp, Pride, Fight Night and the Freshers Ball, but trying to change up our lighting style each time. If you have an event and want killer shots of the night, or shots of the people in attendance then just drop us a line on our contact page. You’ll find we can fit to most budgets and can do anything from bringing custom backdrops, to just rocking up and shooting against whats there already. It a service that can be as big or small as you need it to be….
heres a few shots below, but keep checking in for more today…. and there are a few on the DD blog as well….

Trick or Treat - Fight Night
A little while ago we did some photographs for Sol Gilbert of ZT Fight skool for his website. You can see some of the images here on our past Blog Post.
Sol mentioned that he organises the Fight Nights that take place at Hove Town Hall. These are the kind of events where there is a big boxing ring in the middle of a hall and lots of tables around. The kind of fights that were happening were Boxing, Kick Boxing and Mixed Marshal Arts. Well we jumped at the chance to do some photography at these events and asked if we could go back stage and shoot some of the fighters, just as they finish their bouts and come back stage.
What an interesting night it was, the atmosphere was amazing and seeing how these things run was brilliant. We got some amazing images of the fighters, who we’d like to thank them and everyone involved in the night for being so helpful. This is an on going project and we are going to try and do lots more of these back stage portraits.
Here are some of our favorites for you, more to come in the future at some point:
Creative Photography students work in the News
The Creative Photography Course at Garage studios is three weeks into the new program, and as always it is inspiring to see new students, those who are highly proficient with their equipment and those who are new to photography, pursuing creative directions and pushing new subject and content ideas.
Andy Parker a student on the first creative course and friend of the studio has recently provoked discussion and interest in the way only he can through a series of images, which began as his response to one of the briefs set on the course. His views and images were picked up as a story by Brighton’s Argus newspaper and the article can be read here on their site.
Those unfamiliar with Andy’s work can visit his flickr stream here. More information and details of his work can be found on his website Avangelist Photography as well as more news on his BBC Feature story interview on the same project, due to be aired this evening monday the 5th of October.
