Plunge Studios, a new photographic studio in Milton Keynes

Plunge Studios

A colleague of mine has recently taken the rather bold step of giving up full-time employment and has set up a photographic studio in Milton Keynes. The business is called Plunge Studios and although they specialise in automotive photography they will take on other work including portraits, landscapes, product shots, architecture and industrial.

From their website:

“Plunge specialises in creative automotive photography by Marc Little. This is a wide subject including cars, motorcycles, trucks, buses, mountain bikes, skateboards basically anything with wheels. We deliver high quality images which aim to capture the essence of your pride and joy. Plunge Studios is based in Old Wolverton Milton Keynes but Marc will travel to various locations to achieve the right environment for your type of vehicle.”

Adore Noir – Fine Art Black and White Photography Magazine

Adore NoirRecently I stumbled across a new bi-monthly PDF based publication called Adore Noir. It is a black and white fine art photography magazine and the 4th issue has just been release. Content is predominantly a portfolio of high quality images accompanied by an interview with the photographer. The images look great on my iPad.

“A fine art black and white photography magazine featuring the works of emerging and noted photographers from around the world.”

A really inspiring publication and a must have for anyone who enjoys monochrome photography whether you are a photographer or not.  At just £1.90 per issue (at the current exchange rate) it is great value. I have all 4 issues and look forward to the next. Highly recommended.
