UNPREDICTABLE CONDITIONS.

Working in inclement weather offers unique rewards. The unpredictable conditions—rain, snow, fog, or storms—often create dramatic atmospheres that can't be replicated in clear, calm weather. The mood in such images is heightened, with mist or rain adding layers of depth and texture, while clouds or dark skies can evoke mystery or a sense of foreboding. Wet surfaces and reflections can introduce fascinating visual elements, enhancing composition and providing opportunities for striking contrasts.

The harsh conditions also tend to thin out crowds, offering a rare opportunity for more intimate, isolated shots in places that would normally be bustling with activity. Ultimately, shooting in inclement weather rewards patience and perseverance, often resulting in photographs that feel raw, atmospheric, and full of character, making them stand out from the more conventional, "picture-perfect" shots typically associated with fair weather.

NOTES FROM THE STREET

  • “It’s never better than when you find yourself alone in the worst weather imaginable.“

  • “Weather sealing - often talked about, but rarely tested by camera owners.”

  • “When you think you’ve captured the moment, you haven’t. Take a few more.”

  • “I feel sorry for lens designers - I buy their product for the look, but then I seem to spend an awful lot of time trying to expose all the flaws so I can really get a sense of the true character of a lens.”

WORKSHOPS

Join me for a “Near Dark” or an "After Dark" photographic workshop - learn to embrace the quiet beauty of blue hour and nighttime, capturing moments that often go unnoticed in the daytime hustle. Learn to see the night in a new light—finding depth in shadows, patterns in streetlights, and stories in the stillness. With a calm, deliberate approach, slow down, tune into the atmosphere, and discover the hidden magic of the world after dark. Each session is an opportunity to experiment, reflect, and connect with the night in a way that’s both meditative and creatively fulfilling.
