Tim and Gend
A couple of old friends of mine came to the studio to get some ‘serious headshots’ done. As you can see, this is not exactly what happened. and in case you were wondering – no photoshop was hurt in the making of these images.
Laura Whitmore: EE BAFTA Red Carpet PR shot
Laura Whitmore strode into the Beaufort bar in the Savoy hotel, resplendent in her Aqua-marine Halston Heritage dress and Jimmy Choo’s and immediately gave me shit about saying she looked ‘rad’. Apparently the 80′s want their vocabulary back. I was shooting Laura for a press-release by M&C Saatchi for Everything …
Jameson Irish Whiskey – David Smith Limited Edition
Jameson commisioned David Smith to design a limited edition bottle for them, they then asked me to go and shoot him for the press release. Unless you are the sort of person who is in the habit of knowing about traditional ornamental glass art (or are a big fan of …

Who should win the Orange Wednesdays Rising Star Award (a name so long that that the winners acceptance speech needs to be 4 seconds shorter than any other award*? Well it’s up to you (and me) the general public (if you’re on Orange – which I am). Here’s the link: …

Red Bull area company with whom I have work for many years, on many different jobs in many different locations around the world. This latest installment saw me at Silverstone Racetrack (in the UK) surrounded by teams from all over the globe competing to be the Racing Can World Champions! …
Jason ‘Wee-Man’ Acuña
Here’s a nice shot of Wee-man. There’s not much of a story to go with it, we shot him for Monster Energy Drinks recently and this was one of my favorite set-ups. As you can see we shot it in a cinema (Soho Screening Rooms) who were very nice and accommodating and …

Hard Boiled Sweets movie posters
Who wouldn’t want to be David Hughes? You’re probably thinking ‘who’s David Hughes’? Well it turns out he’s a rather talented writer, director and editor. He recently got to write, direct and edit a feature called Hard Boiled Sweets. From the looks of things it’s a dark, character-led, gangster plot set in Essex …
Aerosmith ‘Tough Love’ Album cover
This shoot was fun! The premis was simple – a classic red high-heel pushed into some poor sod’s back. Well, the high-heel was simple enough, but getting the right back – that was tricky. So I enlisted the help of an old friend of mine, TV presenter and director, Adam Gendle. They say you always should have your friend’s back. As you can imagine, with all things like this it’s very easy to shoot it in a nice safe way and make it look painful through the art of retouching – BUT NO! I wanted the real deal, Adam was …
RizLab

Gucci Fragrance
So I’ve been shooting a few things for Gucci of late, all to do with their fragrance Gucci Guilty. I’ve learned more about the construction and origin of perfumes than I ever thought I’d know! For example, when perfumiers are sampling different smells they can ‘reset’ their noses by smelling their own …
Skive Footwear AW11 Catalogue
Skive is a footwear brand based locally to me in Hoxton (pretty much on top of me actually), the name ‘Skive’ comes from a term for cutting leather in a particular way, and any suggestion that it’s because they’re lazy is just cobblers. Sorry. I’ve been shooting look-books and catalogues …
