🌈🎥 PRIDE. PEOPLE. PURPOSE.

What a weekend! We had an incredible time delivering a full social media takeover for It's in the Bag at Bristol Pride #. ❤️

From catching up with familiar faces to meeting amazing new people, we spent the weekend capturing the moments that mattered most. We produced everything from fast-paced reels and behind-the-scenes content to vox pops, interviews and long-form storytelling—all in real time to keep audiences engaged throughout the event.

At GD Media, our social media takeover service is designed for charities, festivals, businesses and events that want professional, engaging content while they focus on what they do best. We capture the atmosphere, tell your story and keep your social channels buzzing from start to finish. 📱🎬

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped to chat, shared their experiences and helped spread the life-saving message of testicular cancer awareness. 💗

If you’ve got an event coming up and want your social media to work as hard as you do, we’d love to help.

✨ There’s something truly special about watching a chef at the very top of their craft. ✨

Yesterday, we had the privilege of spending the day with Chef Carl Cleghorn | Modern British Cooking | Bold Flavours as he created a completely bespoke wedding menu for an intimate celebration. Every dish was carefully designed around the couple, proving that incredible food isn’t about the size of the event—it’s about creating unforgettable moments. 🤍

These beautifully handcrafted canapés were a masterclass in precision, flavour and presentation. Delicate, elegant and bursting with personality, each bite was designed to spark conversation and evoke a little nostalgia, reminding guests of familiar flavours reimagined in a luxurious way. 🍽️✨

It’s this level of thought, creativity and passion that makes every wedding menu unique. No shortcuts. No compromises. Just exceptional ingredients, meticulous attention to detail and a dining experience your guests will remember long after the last plate has been cleared.

Which canapé would you be reaching for first? 👇

🎤🎥 POV: You’re standing on stage at Testfest 2026, looking out at an incredible crowd and capturing every moment. 🤘☀️

There’s something special about seeing a festival from the stage. The energy, the smiles, the singing, the dancing, and the connection between the artists and the crowd—it’s a perspective that never gets old. 🔥🎶

2026 was an unforgettable weekend filled with fantastic live music, amazing people, plenty of laughter, and a shared mission to raise awareness for testicular cancer. From the first act to the final encore, the atmosphere was absolutely electric. ❤️

Being trusted to capture these moments from the heart of the action is one of the things I love most about creating content. Every photo, every clip, and every story helps preserve the memories of a truly special event.

The long-form film is on its way, and I can’t wait to show you what we captured from this unique perspective. 🎬👀

What a weekend. What a crowd. What a festival. 🙌

What a weekend. From sunshine to showers, amazing live music to unforgettable moments, Testfest 2026 had everything that makes a festival special. The atmosphere was electric, the crowds were fantastic, and the Barefoot Bandits absolutely brought the house down with an incredible headline performance. 🔥🎶

I genuinely love creating social media content at events like this—capturing the energy, the emotion, and those moments that make people wish they were there. This year, I also had the chance to work on a longer-form film that’s currently in production, and I can’t wait to share it with you soon. 🎬👀

A huge thank you to everyone who made such an incredible success. Great music, great people, and a great cause all rolled into one unforgettable weekend. ❤️

Stay tuned… the full film is coming soon! 🎥✨

There’s a temptation in food photography to over-style everything… tweezers out, fake steam, moving ingredients around for an hour.

But honestly? When the ingredients are this good and the food is created by someone as talented a. , the best thing we can do is stay out of the way and let the dish speak for itself. 🍽️🔥

No drastic editing.
No over-complicated styling.
No smoke and mirrors.

Just good light, strong composition, understanding the story behind the plate… and pressing the shutter at the right moment. 📸

Sometimes the art is knowing when not to interfere.

Massive credit to at the for consistently producing food that looks every bit as incredible as it tastes. 👏

Dodging the heat in the airconned office

I'm spending some time in front of the camera today to tell the world 🌎 just why we love helping veterens connect with charities!

Great set up and well, the air con was much appreciated as temperatures rise in the IK 🇬🇧

Burnout’s a strange one.
You spend so long running at 100mph thinking you’re bulletproof… until your brain and body quietly pull the handbrake on you.

I’m not immune to it. None of us are.
Pressure, responsibility, constant problem solving, spinning plates, trying to build something bigger than yourself… eventually it catches up if you don’t respect it.

What’s made the difference for me this time — and thankfully made recovery quicker — has been having two really important things in place around me.

1️⃣ Good people.
The kind that step up without being asked. The ones that quietly hold the line while you reset.

2️⃣ Purpose.
Even when you’re exhausted, having something meaningful to come back to gives you direction again.

Burnout isn’t weakness.
It’s usually a sign you’ve cared too much for too long without stopping.

Recharge. Reset. Go again. ⚡️

I’ve always been fascinated by time⌚️and space 🌌

The vastness of space and endless time somehow makes anything seem possible and risks insignificant.

So when the opportunity arrose to shoot these stunning I couldn’t say no!

Especially knowing that they have been into space.

Wearing them somehow makes you feel connected to the broader universe. Whenever I check the time I’m reminded of the perspective that we are small in comparison to the wonders of space and that there is always time for more!

We had a lot of fun shooting these 📸 creating a back drop and a set, playing with light and of course breaking out the macro!
