Here’s a a few shots from a catalogue I’ve shot this month for Mountain Warehouse in Bury St Edmonds and Shropshire. We shot some equestrian pictures for the launch of their new range and we also shot their AW11/12 Outdoor Range. For once the weather was actually on our side and we had a great time at Catherine Peck‘s stables with her magnificent horses. We then headed up to Shropshire and shots some hiking, running, biking and country casual clothing on the Long Mynd and at Lake Vyrnwy Here a few shots for the country casual ware.

Springtime in the UK is such a great time of year, so we took advantage and shot some stock pictures of our children. We went out walking around Shropshire and visited a few National Trust properties, keeping it very simple and just shooting a few pictures whenever we saw something that would work. We also noticed that the fields opposite my old school, Summerhill in Kingswinford where absolutely think with wild poppies so we also seized that opportunity and shot a few winners.

This was my first time working for the Ski Club of Great Britain, they had commissioned me to shoot a collection of action and lifestyle pictures for their Fresh Tracks holiday business. They needed shots of their ski leaders guiding on the mountain and the all important apres ski. The snow was definitely challenging to shoot on, but we managed to find some fresh snow high up on the Tignes Glacier. It was hard work but after 3 days we had managed to shoot a good mix of both and everyone was happy with the results. Job done!

With the snow in the alps being so thin and fuel prices going through the roof I decided to stay home and shoot some stock images for Cultura. So I gave Kev Harris a call and we organized dates, I had decided to shoot in Shropshire for the first part and then head to Snowdonia for the second. In Shropshire we shot mostly hiking on Stiperstones, the light was really intense with great layering on the hills in the distance. Once in Snowdonia we headed to a new location towards Beddgelert and shot some camping images by the river, and then went for a fast hike/scramble up into the hills to try and shoot the sunset down the valley towards the sea, unfortunately the weather had a different plan and we didn’t get the sunset we wanted, but we still managed to get a few nice shots done.

Having been brought up on a steady diet of National Geographic Magazines from the early Seventies. I have to say I was pretty pleased to see one of my images, framed by that famous yellow border, gracing the front cover of their Traveller magazine.

Here are a few pictures from a shoot I did on Snowdon with the Salomon Spring / Summer 2011 hiking range. The brief was for images that portray light fast walking in classic British scenery. But as soon as the gear arrived the spectacular autumn weather turned into weeks of rain and gales blowing all of the autumn colours away. I waited and waited, and arranged dates and cancelled and arranged again, then I saw a brief window of opportunity in the met offices forecast, made a few calls and within 12 hours we where on our way to North Wales, due to the lack of leaves it had to be up high or nothing.
There was blue blue sky the whole way there, but as usual Snowdon was covered in cloud, the forecast at the car park was for a clear mountain by late afternoon, and sure enough, after hiking up and sitting out the fog, it finally lifted and the most beautiful afternoon fell upon the mountain and we got to work. I know they aren’t the highest mountains in the world but when the light gets that good Wales is pretty hard to beat. A few days later I sent over the shots to Salomon, the marketing manager sent me a message saying ”Hey Ross, I’m loving these shots and bang on the brief I emailed over!”… Job done!

So here we have the new catalogue from Snow + Rock and I am very pleased to say I have the front and back cover. I said in my blog entry in April that I was holding back all of the best images from the shoot until the catalogue was launched. So here are a few of the best images from the shoot. Many thanks to all of the crew from out in Obergurgl and congratulations to Julio and Becky on the cover shot, one of 37 images from that face which they rode perfectly top to bottom, that after an initial 1/2 an hour hike up. I’ve put my favourite from those shots in the slideshow below, Enjoy!

Outdoor clothing and equipment retailer Mountain Warehouse have just published their Autumn and Winter range, this year they have decided to do two separate catalogues, one for hiking and rambling, and one of ski wear. It seems like a long time ago since we shot the ski images in Alpe d’Huez, so it’s great to see it in print.
Many thanks to Issy, Ben, Peter, Rosanna, Adrian and Lisa Marie for the modeling expertise, and all the Mountain Warehouse crew, it was great fun shooting with them!

I went down to Cornwall to shoot some interior pictures for Port Issac Cottages. After a day of shooting the house, I went down to Polzeath beach in the pouring rain to get a breath of fresh air and to see what was going to happen with the sunset, almost straight away the clouds broke and I managed to shoot a couple of really nice images in the last twenty minutes. Although silhouettes are pretty easy to shoot and a bit of a cliché they are also quite effective and I can’t resist.

After a few requests coming in for stock pictures and the OIA needing a few images from me, I decided to get out and shoot some running and hiking pictures around Shropshire and North Wales. Although it was still early in September the weather turned out to be fairly autumnal and it rained…lots! By the time we got to Snowdonia there were torrents of water pouring off the hills, but the cloud formations broke regularly and when they did the sunlight was really intense. Not one to keep my gear dry, we shot through some heavy showers and I think we got some good results. Which just goes to show that the moto ‘get out there no matter what’ pays off in the end.
