Anyway, there’s not really much to say about these, just a simple set of portraits playing around with random looks and items. I enjoyed the chance to just piss about a bit rather than focusing on a pre-designed shooting idea.

I’ve not split them out, but here’s the gallery from Flickr. It’s a mix of the Star Wars sets, the amazing nature of Tunisia and a few Roman ruins.

Enjoy!

We were going to go to torture garden again, until we looked at the prices. £35 a ticket for non-members! Now I know that’s not a massive price for a holiday club ticket, but if you’re a couple (which we are) and you spend £80ish on a costume each, plus a fair few drinks once you’re inside, it quickly becomes around the same price as a weekend away, obviously just with less BDSM. Well, depending where you go for your weekend away

I should point out I was pretty drunk when taking these, and didn’t actually take the one with me in (surprise, surprise) but still, here’s us at halloween. I was meant to be the crow, I’ve just not got the wig on here!

The extra’s to this set can be found on facebook in a few minutes.

Happy Halloween!

and for something a bit bigger, I put together a collage of those images. I’ve got this at some stupidly high resolution, so might make a full size print of it for exhibition at some point. Not sure. Click the image for a detailed version.

Oh, and one more for an older photoshoot that just fits:

However, Red Bull X-Fighters was pretty damn awesome. Thanks to work I was in the VIP area with far too much free alcohol in my system when I was shooting these. The riders were fantastic and the after party was…messy. Despite taking a million photos at the part – there’s none in this post…for a reason!

Anyway – the photos:

In the mean time, just enjoy the photos we’ve created for the upcoming album.

Anyway, I’m dragging myself up to post something, so here’s a few portraits from the studio. Remember, if you want to model, email me at neb8neb@gmail.com (my ben@benbale.com email is playing up at the moment – sorry if you’ve tried to email me on it in the last couple of months, I wont have got it!)

I don’t know why this post has come out so blue, but go listen to 5000 Years by Recoil.

There’s a story behind every one of these, but that’s something for another time. So instead, here’s a photo of the worst haircut I’ve ever had.

Of course it helps that I’ve just finished a photoshoot like the one below…

If everyone turns up at torture garden that has said they want to come, it should be an interesting evening. I’ve never been one to shy away from mixing work and personal lives – I don’t see the point of pretending to be someone else at work. Having said that, this will be the first time a number of people from the office have come down to TG with us…

Anyway, here’s a quick set of some random photos I’ve taken in the past that don’t really fit in at all with this post

Oh, and there’s far more from Priscilla coming soon, I just need to get round to uploading them!

Well this one is a bit more Parisian boudoir I suppose. We redecorated our bedroom a couple of weeks ago, so I got a model round to give the purple walls something to look at! I think the mix is perfect, but then I’m biased.

Verdict?

Oh and here’s a candid one from while I was setting up, I think it’s quite fun
