A handy #tbt to celebrate National Dermatologist Day - even if it’s a skinny month there’s no excuse not to practice self-care. (I don’t know the first thing about skincare I think moisturiser is involved)

I’m not sure when my brand became ‘punching myself hard in the face’, but it was fun years ago and it’s still fun today. I’d love to say this is a way of tracking my growth as a person/photographer but realistically it’s probably just tracking a fondness for concussions.

Just going to barrow from an older post for today’s #tbt - currently trying to keep my head(s) while testing my ability to focus on more than one shoot at a time 📸

I’m a sucker for travel equipment and have enough adaptors to supply a small hostel at this point. Definitely got a bit carried away with this one but powered through in the end.

How the creative process feels when you’ve had too much caffeine but still want to try and improve your Photoshop skulls.

Do you have the time to listen to me whine? Feeling a bit of a basket case but finally weaving together some creative plans for the new year. (apologies as always for the appalleing puns)

I folded and played with another clone photo whilst in a solitarey mood. Normally I’d have wasted the weekend on screens and scrolling but in the Welsh countryside that happily wasn’t on the cards.

There’s nothing like a weekend break unexpectedly without a shred of internet connectivity to encourage a bit of creativity. (I found the key eventually)

Felt a bit spicy after going to see #dune cinema last week & thought I’d get dune and dirty with a messy setup; this shot brought to you by the combined powers of my perpetual sci-fi nerdery and my desire to have sausages for dinner.

A quick lil’ BTS of the Carpet Grabbers shoot, including lots of sprawling on the floor with caret offcuts. Note to self: the studio need more vacuuming.

It feels good to get a grasp on new projects, even if things get a bit out of hand sometimes.

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
