The AM24 charity calendar, featuring Aston Martin sports cars, was a personal project to raise funds for the Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity.

All 15 images were exclusively taken for the calendar by myself and son across various locations in the UK. The majority were shot using a Canon R5 body with either RF 24-70 L or RF 100-500 L lenses in RAW and edited using Adobe Lightroom.

Some elements in 3 of the images benefitted from Adobe's AI image generation power then in Photoshop (now fully released) to assist with editing.

An oversized format was chosen to better convey the detail in my personal favourite 2:1 image crop ratio. This presented many print sourcing challenges for the low volume. In total, the project took over 300 hours including the photography, editing, layout, print sourcing, and fulfilment.

The calendar successfully raised £2,705 for the amazing GOSH.

Custom calendar grids were created with the use of Astute Graphics plugins in Adobe Illustrator, including the Art Switcher panel.

Final layout was completed in InDesign, which included researched information text and photo technical details for each month.

The wonderful, personal, feedback supporters kindly provided via the JustGiving charity page made it even more worthwhile. A huge thank you to all who donated 🙏
