Jump Photoshoot

Jump photoshoot from Jerry Balloch on Vimeo.

There are some shots from this shoot over on my site and on my behance folio. This is a video of all the shots taken during the shoot. I'm going to pull a few more out over time. Very good fun. Thanks to all who took part in it, it was a blast.

Other Leading Brand – overshirt

Worked on these self portrait/product shots of my new overshirt for Other Leading Brand. I'm almost at full production stage with these, just tweeking the designs a little and nailing down fabrics. It's great being able to control the look and feel of the brand as well as design the shirts themselves. Got a shoot planned for next week with models for the shirts to save me jumping around. Will post the results.

Red door portraits

A couple of portraits that I took after the LSL shoot on the mamiya rz67. Shot them on expired Ektachrome and then cross-processed them. Love the separation between the person and the door behind. The dappled light is due to it being a fantastically sunny day with some big old clouds rolling by, lots of trees in garden too. Definitely going to use this location again.

littlesister lucy

I did a fashion shoot for littlesister lucy yesterday. Shot digital and film. Once I get the film developed I'll post some images, in the meantime this is one of the digital captures. It was a really fun shoot. I shot with my brother, so we both got to do our takes on the outfits. The model was Ling, she did a great job considering it wasn't as warm as it could have been out there!

Nice Moment

Another couple here from the 6x7 project. This time I was shooting my Dad as he did some leather work in his book room. I'm shooting available light on Ilford Delta 3200 here. Getting some nice shots when my youngest son walks through, completely ignoring me and the camera and starts talking to his grandpa, click, caught it. Really delighted with this shot...

Beach Black and Whites

I'm still in the UK, been a great summer. I've been working on this personal project documenting the people close to me using my Mamiya RZ67 as a way of really getting to know the camera. It's going well and I have a bunch of images scanned and ready to share. My plan is to make a book with them 6x7 - 6 images each of 7 people. I'm using a variety of film stocks as well as trying to capture what the person means to me rather than 6 straight portraits of each person. It's a really nice way to remember this summer and the things I've been up too. More to come...

Quick update

The beard is coming along nicely. Quick self portrait above using the Mamiya RZ67 and some Fuji FP-100b polaroid film.

I'm heading back to the UK tomorrow for 2 months to escape the heat of Dubai. Planning on shooting a lot of personal work on the RZ to really make use of it, can't wait. Plus it will be great to hang out with family and friends for a decent amount of time instead of the usual rush trips.

I'm also going to be working on a fashion project over the summer. Will talk more about that later. You can get a sneak peek over on my flickr page here.
