MOBILE MACRO STUDIO

My mobile macro studio

The compact studio I take into the field and use indoors for more artistic macro work.

Although I now prefer to photograph subjects as I find them, that isn't always possible. For those moments I've developed a mobile macro studio — equally at home indoors or outdoors — which is brilliant for insect work and any shot where I want something more artistic than a standard macro frame.

Platypod Extreme

A great choice for low-down or desktop setups. Compact, rock-solid and endlessly versatile.

Platypod Elbow

I use the elbow to position background textures cleanly behind my subject — small, simple and incredibly useful.

Platypod Disc

A quick and easy way to mount a subject onto the Platypod Extreme or Handle. Speeds up my entire workflow.

Platypod Handle

One of my favourite Platypod accessories — perfect for handheld and creative shooting angles.

Platypod Mini Super Clamp

Holds backgrounds, subjects and props exactly where I need them. A staple of my mobile studio setup.

Macro Background Textures

The textures I use in most of my macro photography. Available as digital downloads from my shop.
