Sneaker Summit

Better late than never. I shot these in February at the Sneaker Summit in Dubai. Was a great event, almost too busy to allow for photographs, but I managed to get a few shots.

I was testing out a Leica M6 which I'd hired. Great camera. Shot these on Ilford 3200.

Adidas SUPERSTAR 80s 3WAY

Another shot from today of another crooked tongues 3way. This time the iconic 80s Superstar. This one comes with 5 different tongue/lace options so I'll shoot the rest soon.

ADIDAS FORUM MID 3WAY

I've had these a while now but only just got round to shooting them. They're from Crooked Tongues, part of the consortium 3Way release. Check out their site here if you fancy picking up a pair.

Sneakers

Just added a new project to my site, showcasing my obsession with sneakers and photographing them.

Check it out here.

Think this is my fave shot from the Gazelle Skate shoot. Used an old deck as the background. Again trainers bought from focus in Edinburgh.

More kicks

Another shot from the "slammin kicks" series. These are Adidas Gazelle "Flavours of the World" Lavender Edition from July 2007.

Kicking things off

Here's one of my latest shots in the "slammin kicks" personal project I'm working on. It's not too easy to find decent trainers here in Dubai so I'm thinking this is going to have to be more of a long term project. We'll see.
