The things I saw #6

February 17, 2015 by Phil Kneen Photography

This is the last of the snapshots from my visual meanderings, all taken in Spain during January, in no particular order. All shots were made using an Olympus MjuII 35mm compact and Agfa Vista 200 film. I hope people have enjoyed these photos as much as I enjoyed taking and sharing them. Possibly not. I need to start working on the project I was actually in Spain to shoot now, sorting out and editing portraits and contacting all the people to sign […]

The things I saw #4

February 14, 2015 by Phil Kneen Photography

Here’s a few more snapshots from my visual notebook, all taken in Spain during January, in no particular order. All shots were made using an Olympus MjuII 35mm compact and Agfa Vista 200 film. I used to hate walking, even a short stroll with the dog along the beach would leave me sweaty and achy, if anyone could find an excuse not to walk somewhere, it would be me. But that was a year ago, since then I’ve lost 5 […]

This week…

October 8, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

I published the above image on my Facebook page a few weeks ago, I really love it, which is why I published it, but it received a few negative comments and was then removed for containing ‘sexually explicit content’, which I found a bit odd. Anyway, it put me off publishing the image again, but my good friend and PA, Ciara, has been nagging me to show it. So here it is, I still love it. This week I received […]

“It’s all about the light…”

April 15, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

I arrived in Valencia, Spain, yesterday to start a week-long shoot with musician, Simon Campbell, I’m doing the shots for his album cover and artwork. I wasn’t planning on shooting last night, but we took Simon’s dogs out for a walk and the light was fantastic, totally different to what I’m used to. For all the outside locations we’re going to need to shoot around dawn and dusk, which suits me, because it means I’ll be getting paid to sit […]

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 […]
