That was, almost, 2014…

December 14, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

I know it’s not quite over, but I don’t think I’ll have much opportunity to post over the next few weeks, so I thought I’d do this now… Over the last year, as a rough estimate, I’ve photographed about 250 different people, some of them friends, some of them strangers who became friends. The images here are my particular favourites. I can distinctly remember the moment I pressed the shutter on every image, what we’d being talking about and even […]

Sarah Puzzar

November 30, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

I’ll be totally honest, I wasn’t looking forward to this shoot with Sarah at all, I’d been dreading it all week. I never normally shoot with artificial light, but for this I knew I was going to have to. I arrived at Sarah’s flat at about 3pm, when I got upstairs I was surprised to see how much daylight was still available, so we banged-off a few shots in the bedroom before it got too dark. Then it was out […]

Changes

September 20, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

One of the things I love about portrait photography is the way people can look completely different in every photograph I take. There are so many variables that affect the final image – the sitters mood, my mood, how well we know each other, light, temperature…the list is endless. These portraits were made days apart, weeks apart, there’s a couple with a few years gap. One thing I noticed, straight away, when selecting these images is how the look of […]

Part of the process…

September 1, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

Contrary to fond belief, I don’t normally turn-up at photo-shoots with no idea what I’m doing, although this can sometimes appear to be the case, especially on Sunday morning shoots… Most of the images I make have been preconceived, for all projects I will sketch-out ideas, possible models, locations and props. Some of the ideas make it, some don’t. (some people don’t make it either, sorry, Porscha!) Anyone familiar with ‘The Life, Aquatic’ and an exhibition of portraits I showed […]

Midnight Cloud

July 13, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

For 11 days in June I joined Mike Cooke on an epic 5500 mile road-trip from England to the far north of Norway and back, a fairly arduous journey made even more difficult by the fact that Mike is confined to a wheelchair for most of his waking life. Mike, who has muscular dystrophy, asked me to join him on the trip, not only to document, but to share the driving. I’m writing a couple of magazine articles about the […]

Scandinavian Wide Boy

June 25, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

I took my plastic Holga Pano Wide 6x12cm film camera to Norway with me, plus 20 rolls of film, but I only shot two rolls, one of colour and one of black & white (Kodak Portra 800 and Kodak Tri-X 400). Developed and scanned at Peak Imaging. I wish I’d shot more film now…

Alive and kicking

June 7, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

I’ve recently been accused of not shooting film anymore, of abandoning something that I fought to save for so long. Well it’s not true, film is alive and well and I’m still using it. Okay the price of film has become astronomical, it’s almost doubled in price over the last year, but if I’m careful, that’s not a problem, I just concentrate more and take half as many photos. But yes, I’m still shooting film, I always have either a […]

Tres cervezas por favor…

April 8, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

It’s been a fairly quiet couple of weeks for me, my exhibition is already half way through its one month showing, it appears to have been received quite well, but negative feedback rarely gets back to the person who really needs to hear it. Last week I got some more shots of the very beautiful, Ciara, beautiful and extremely hard – I had her standing in a large sea pool, which I made her completely submerge in to get her […]

That was the year that was…

December 17, 2013 by Phil Kneen Photography

Juan McGuinness & Orca – my favourite image of 2013. Below are my runner-up favourites. All made using film and digital, 35mm and medium format, compacts and iPhones. Thank you to every single person who has helped me out over the past year, both in front of and behind the camera. Happy Christmas!
