The Viking - Traveller Magazine

Shot for EasyJet’s Traveller magazine at Texture restaurant in West London. This image is the cover for a wider feature on the Icelandic food revolution. The aim was to create a light and amusing visual - a big beastly Viking sat at a table of very delicate Michelin food. As a portrait photographer I love the subtle colour palette of the below image.

An alternative image from the shoot is below, as well as the finished front cover. Click HERE for a sneaky behind-the-scenes video.

Transform

A recent shoot to revamp leading cosmetic surgery firm Transform’s library of images. All subjects are real life patients who have undergone a number of non-surgical procedures. We shot in the studio in Shoreditch and handled all aspect of production in house including: styling and shoot production for OOH, print and web use. As a commercial photographer I love these sorts of campaigns - less is more.

Traveller Magazine - London and Berlin

EasyJet’s in-flight magazine, Traveller, ran a feature on how successful European business individuals kick-start their day. Here are pictures of Patrick Grant and Dominik Tiemann in their most comfortable get-ups. Shot in London and Berlin. As a portrait photographer both of these subjects were a delight to work with.

Michael Page

An image of MMA fighter Michael ‘Venom’ Page, as part of my ongoing project Sport Uncovered. The light trails showing movement were all done in camera. Of his sport Michael says, "A lot of people are in the industry chasing something. I don’t chase it, I do what I do and things come to me.” As a sport portrait photographer I’m always amazed at the physical talents of my subjects.

Jon Bon Jovi

This portrait of Jon Bon Jovi was taken in his hotel room in London when he was on tour. To date, Jon has released two solo albums and twelve studio albums with his band, which have sold over 130 million copies worldwide. As a portrait photographer I’m not saying what I think about the cover design. Speech bubble…hummm.

Global Representation

Very excited to announce that I have signed a global representation deal with Hancock & Handsome, the newly launched photographic sister agency of the highly respected illustration house Handsome Frank.

 For existing customers this will not result in any change - we will continue to shoot and produce in-house. It does however mean I will have the drive of some very experienced agents knocking on doors in places we would otherwise not be able to reach; not only in London but worldwide.

James Hancock, Jon Cockley and Tom Robinson will run the agency, drawing on their extensive experience in the creative fields.

It's a great honour to be asked on board as a portrait photographer alongside a set of amazing photographers. You can check out their wonderful illustrators at www.handsomefrank.com and see the photographic agencies sparkly new site at www.hancockandhandsome.com

Director magazine

This portrait of Dame Stephanie Shirley, a former child refugee, information technology pioneer and philanthropist, was taken for Director magazine, for their cover and main feature. Dame Shirley was shot at her home using Kino Flo on the 5Dsr...I’m a big fan of her earrings.

Portfolio Video

Here’s a short video offering a glimpse of my portfolio. Shout if you would like to see it in person!

Jehnny Beth - Savages

This is an image of singer/songwriter Jehnny Beth, lead singer and lyricist for rock band Savages. The photo was shot in Hackney, using a narrow depth of field to draw the viewer into the front eye. On her music Jehnny says “artists are creating ‘the world exactly as it should be’. That is the real power of the artists, and I believe in this power.”

Ronnie O'Sullivan - Framed

Pleased to say that my portrait image of Ronnie will be used in his debut fiction crime novel, Framed, published by Orion and out in November this year. The book promises to transport readers to the sordid underworld of 1980’s Soho, full of mobsters, killers and corruption. Sounds intriguing! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-36733470

Investec

This shoot for Investec took place at The Hari Hotel in West London. We shot using Investec staff; it was important to try to capture their personality and individuality in the photos, yet still maintain cohesion. Logistically, using a public space such as a hotel comes with its own challenges, but a reccy beforehand to focus on a few specific spots helped get the shoot moving.

These portrait images will be used both above and below the line, across all of Investec’s assets.

Sport 10 Year Anniversary

A big one for Sport for their tenth anniversary edition; we went out to Madrid to shoot Gareth Bale, who featured in the magazine ten years ago at the very start of his career. We shot him post-training at the club’s extensive facilities on the city’s edge. The magazine was running a double cover edition so it was then up to Sheffield to shoot Jessica Ennis-Hill who I have had the pleasure of photographing a few times before. To give the whole edition a celebratory vibe Serge Seidlitz then illustrated across the whole edition. Some behind the scenes images too of the days shot by Naomi Baker. As a sports portrait photographer it was great working with Gareth and Jessica.

Save The Children

A recent shoot for Save The Children. Below is an early stage scamp of the concept and then the end execution below that. We handled all aspects of prop styling and shoot logistics in-house and are very happy with the end result. A fun image that will attract people to STC’s latest fundraising campaign. As an advertising photographer its great to see these images out in the wild doing their thing.

Addison Lee - Advertising Shoot

Twelve above-the-line executions for leading private hire and courier firm Addison Lee. Part of a wider re-design and re-positioning of the brand - their first since inception in the 1970’s.

We handled all aspects of the advertising shoot in-house from model sourcing, styling and studio hire right through to post production. We are very happy with the outcome of what will form a major thrust of a £5 million marketing campaign over the next 12 months.

Delighted to announce that three of my images have been selected for the highly prestigious AOP Awards 2016. Frankie Dettori and my nordic rower in the Commissioned Editorial category, whilst my shot for Cancer Research UK is given the nod in the Commissioned Design category. Having three images selected is rare and a huge honour.
