A recent photograph from a series of shots taken at Olswang Law Firm in Holborn. London lawyer photography is a much more creative and inspiring place to be than in previous years, with many law firms willing to break the mould and adopt a much more dynamic style to their lawyer and partner photography. It’s welcome news for portrait photographers aiming to develop more commercial styles within this industry.

Event Photographer in London| DTEX Systems Panel Debate

Mathew Quake Photographer — Wed, 01 Jun 2011 14:42:12 +0000

I am an event photographer in London covering a range of corporate and pr communication events. DTex Systems are a new client and my first commission for them was to cover a debate they were organising and supply a series of images to support editorial content on the subject matter. They hosted a high profile debate entitled ‘AN INFORMATION WAR?’: Balancing National Security, Trade Secrets & the Rights of the Individual’. It was held at Australia House, London in May and guests included many of the UK’s top CIOs. The debate-style forum was opened by the Australian High Commissioner for the UK, chaired by Sir Edmund Burton KBE, and saw several high profile speakers including Peter Erceg (Head of IT Security, T-Mobile) and John Suffolk (former CIO and SIRO of HMG), who took centre stage to discuss their unique perspective of a ‘balanced approach’.

Donington Park Motor Racing Photography| Britcar Championship Photographer

Mathew Quake Photographer — Wed, 01 Jun 2011 13:58:09 +0000

Donington Park Motor Racing Photography featuring a few highlights from the Britcar Championship on the 8th May this year. After aquiring a Canon 400mm 2.8 lens for the weekend I was eager to put it to its paces and capture the action up at Donington Park, where a friend was taking part in the action, Fiona James of Panic Racing – www.fionajamesracing.com. There is a selection of racing action and pit lane reportage here. I just love the final image in the series. This was the last shot of the day and I timed this so that the evening sun hit him just at the right moment. He had just escaped a burning vehicle and I imagined the long walk through the tunnel was a time of dark contemplation, anger and frustration at what had just happened. The sunlight which greeted him on the exit was likely to be very comforting, perhaps a warm reminder of how lucky he was to be alive.

Zandra Rhodes Photographs at Fortnum and Mason, who partnered with the famous fashion designer to create English designs with a twist for their Easter Egg boxes.

Each design depicts a vibrant butterfly adding a splash of colour to Fortnum’s much loved Easter Eggs. Here are a few publicity images taken on the dayto support the press communications. She was one of the easiest and sweetest celebrities I have ever worked with.
