Feel free to look at my previous work here, there's quite a few projects. Enjoy!

Here's some examples of the design work that I did while working at my current job at Travelling Through. We are a bookshop and café so there were a few printed marketing necessary for the business. Instead of having a business card for the shop I designed bookmarks to give to every customer who bought a book or was just looking for more information. Being larger than a business card I was able to put all contact details, websites, address etc on the bookmark.

This is a newer version as we noticed some customers were taking the book mark and folding it in half. With this version the design is better for folding yet keeping all the information clear. The multi coloured bar stripes are mirrored colours from the website.

A loyalty card is also important for a café business. Just the necessary information is on the card keeping it clean and clear.

I also designed a label sticker to put on our paper bags when a customer purchased a book.

Guy Fawkes

2015-11-05T22:49:00.000+00:00

Remember remember the 5th of November....

I am delighted to say that I have an exhibition taking place at Travelling Through... Bookshop, Café, Culture Hub and Artspace for the month of November. This is my first exhibition in London.
Private View tomorrow, Friday 6th November, 6.30-8.30pm. Come for a drink and say hi!

The photo above is of the shop window today. It being Guy Fawkes we thought it would be appropriate to have my fireworks prints in full view for passers by. The photographs were taken at last years displays in Brockwell Park and Alexandra Palace.

I tried the technique of long exposure and changing the focus while the shutter is open. It creates some interesting effects. All these shots have been created in camera.

Glyphs - Out To Sea

2014-11-11T19:43:00.001+00:00

Brief - To create an interesting music video for the London based band Glyphs for their upcoming EP.

I was involved in the creative process of planning the music video. The band wanted to do something different from their past videos and to feature both members of the band. We decide to use timelapse, quick editing and a bit of humor to add to the fun and pop element to the song.

The video was premiered on Clash.

Directed, shot and edited by Ian Hurley

South of France

2012-09-07T14:47:00.000+01:00

There's some amazing ancient architecture in the south of France. We visited the Pont du Gard near Remoulins and managed to see Radiohead in the Roman amphitheater in Nimes. France is very beautiful.

Berlin Lomography

2012-08-22T18:24:00.000+01:00

Berlin is one of my most favourite cities, I've been there many times, it's steeped in history and has a special alternative cool side to it aswell. I took these shots while interrailing around Europe 2 years ago but only recently developed the film. Taken with Lomo LC-A on Lomography X-Pro 200 film.

The Blasket Islands

2012-07-19T16:01:00.000+01:00

In July 2011 a group of friends and I went to the stay on the The Great Blasket Island. The Blasket Islands are a group of six islands off the coast of Dunquin, Co. Kerry which were inhabited by a completely Irish speaking population until 1953. Nowadays, from spring to autumn, a ferry operates for people wishing to visit the main island and explore the ruined houses and enjoy the amazing view of the mainland from the island itself. It's a spectacular island and possibly one of the most beautiful islands off the Irish coast.

Taken in a short stay in Brighton at the start of the British summer weather, shame it's didn't continue...

Taken with Lomo La Sardina camera on Lomography X-Pro 200 film. The grain gives a real old fashioned look to the photos.

Cork Docks, Ireland

2012-06-07T15:19:00.000+01:00

The docks in Cork is a very interesting place, not only for it's long history but also it's present. The docks in Cork have lost much of the hustle and bustle that once used to surround the area but they still trudge along but now reaching the retirement age of it's life. The Docklands in Cork have had many proposals for redevelopment but most of these have been shelved due to the time we live in. Here are some photos of the area before, if ever, it gets redeveloped.
