Projects
  • Scotland Landscape Project
    Scotland Landscape ProjectIn late Jan/Feb I went to Scotland for a University project for The National Trust as the client. I am primarily a landscape photographer so I was very passionate about this project . I took lots of equipment with me but my primary camera was a Hasselblad H4D-50 with a 28mm and 50mm lens. I then used my Canon DLSR to capture the time lapses; as I created a video as well as stills. I started on the west of Scotland making my way through Glen Coe, I then spent just over a week on The Isle of Skye. Here I climbed the mountains, visited the beaches and explored the whole island (there is still so much I didn't see). I then made my way up the west coast of Scotland before making my way to the Cairngorm National Park. I spent a bit of time on the East Coast but finished in the Galloway Forrest Park. I spent around 2 weeks in Scotland and was very happy with the outcome! If you click on the Tumblr link you can see all of the research I did before the project.

Work history
    Lucas Bond Photographer
    I am the photographer for a luxury gift and homeware online shop. I made the backdrop myself for the client as they had specific look they wanted as well as picking studio gear for me to use. I go to the studio to photograph for them around a day a fortnight, sometimes much more if there are new items to photograph. Most of the images you see on the sight are mine.
    Internship
     - 
    I had an internship with Timur Celikdag, an award winning fashion and portrait photographer based in London. Although fashion and portraiture isn't my primary focus in photography it was a great experience that I learnt lots from. I spent around 3 days each week in his office helping plan his projects and shoots. I was then 3rd or 2nd assistant on each of his shoots. I found the pre production work very useful as this could also help me with my work.
