Some favourites from 2026’s final breakfast club! 🏁🍳

It’s been a real treat shooting these this year, they’re blimen’ lovely events & really make the 5:30am alarms worth it!

And, hey, lots of happy smiling faces & cool cars- what more could you ask for!

Lots of lovely shoots to catch up on soon but, for now, let’s take it back to July’s TIMELESS CLASSIC event and reminisce on that blimen’ gorgeous dappled light!

LOVE the new location for this event. There really is nothing better than a carpark of classic goodies & timeless just does it *right* !!

Hopefully I’ll be there for the next one, I missed August and I’ve been sad about it ever since!

2026’s Markel International Magnolia Cup!
Swipe to see their day from start to finish! ⭐️🏇

Firstly, I was again beyond stoked to be asked back to capture this for a 3rd year in a row! I blimen’ love snapping this one and always have the best time!

Secondly, this year had just the most wonderful group of women which made for a really gorgeous atmosphere. You can probably tell by how this gallery is curated but, for me, most of the magic comes from the moments inbetween the main race. I just love all the hair plaiting, tip sharing, gear prepping, girl-hood ‘moments’ that come out of something like this. It’s truly special. 🫶

Lastly, a huge well done to Imaan ✨ إيمان and of course, all of the wonderful women who took part. Thank you for all being so lovely!

Goodwood Festival of Speed After dark….! 💥

My previous reel seemed to go down a treat, so here’s the photo results! Lots of Q’s on how to see this & unfortunately it is a GRRC member’s only event on the thursday evening (I think it may single-handedly be worth the membership though!!)

This was my 3rd year covering the evening festivities & it’s bloody electric. Quite possibly my favourite part of the entire weekend!!

Time for some more Goodwood Festival of Speed favs! 🏁📸

In case you missed my last post, I was stationed in one place this year, so these are just a few of the shots I managed to sneak in during little pockets of free time (mostly Sunday evening!)

Always a treat to see the beast of turin & gosh I just loved the central feature this year!

Enjoy!

What a treat to spend all 4 days snapping Goodwood Festival of Speed’s new Fanzone! 📸🏁

Some seriously special guests on this & truly such a fab experience to hear all of their wonderful stories & musings. I must also add how fab this was for the fans, I had so many joyous chats over the weekend with people who had travelled from far and wide to meet & listen to their heros, really really special stuff & a perfect new addition to the FOS offerings.

One more sleep to go! 🏁🏎️

A few favourites ahead of this year’s ! 🙌
Thrilled to be back with the Goodwood Festival of Speed team. I’ve got a slightly different brief this year as I’ll be based exclusively in the new Fanzone area HOWEVER I should still have plenty of time to get out and explore in the mornings and evenings... and I genuinely can’t wait !!

See you tomorrow?
