Carlos Tevez, Photo Illustration photographed by Ranald Mackechnie

A non-commercial test done as a collaborative piece with London Advertising Photographer Ranald Mackechnie, who photographed Carlos Tevez as part of another commercial project undertaken for the Football Association. In this example, we used a collection of textures and organic watercolours, photographed and turned into photoshop brushes. You can see more examples like this in my Creative Retouching portfolio section.

Wayne Rooney photographed by Ranald Mackechnie

Another example from the same series of images from Ranald’s portfolio. These images were manipulated to create a more illustrative effect almost like a worn poster effect.

David Beckham photographed by Ranald Mackechnie

This was done as part of a refresh of Ranald’s current portfolio of work. Ranald Mackechnie is a London based advertising photographer who regularly photographs projects for the Football Association, on which I have also participated in. The treatment of this photograph came about from experimenting on another one of Ranald’s football shoots.

Web Design, Garry Errill Photographer web portfolio

My online portfolio for Garry uses a simple but aesthetic interface built in Flash and uses XML, so that Garry can easily modify the images and text content on the site. The website allows for scaling of images on large/small screens and can feature potentially unlimited portfolios and information sections.

Combined with this, I have also installed a simple WordPress blog so Garry can keep a record of his newest work.

I also have many other examples of webdesign for photographers and businesses at my other site www.nxmd.co.uk
