ES Cover Shoot - Food Special
A very tasty recent shoot photographing ES Magazine's food special. Nuno Mendes (below), The Clove Club, Tonic and Remedy, Izy Hossack and supper club hosts Jackson & Levine (pictured below with pineapples on their heads). As a lifestyle photographer I am often asked to turn my attention to food - and I’m always happy to eat the results.
The Royal Ballet
Part of an ongoing commission for easyJet, photographing the full spectrum of people who use their airline...the 'easyJet generation'. Yuhui Choe and Tristan Dyer are soloists for the Royal Ballet. Shot at Holborn Studios, London. As a portrait photographer I love these shoots - the range of subjects is just great.
ES Magazine Florists
I shot this feature for ES Magazine looking at the changing face of London’s floristry scene. As a lifestyle photographer I was tasked with looking at some of the new wave of flower shapers who are injecting some rock and roll into the once pedestrian past time.
Jamie Oliver
A recent shoot with the naked chef aka Jamie Oliver at his Old Street, London, HQ. Shot for Timeout. Jamie has launched Food Tube Magazine which will appear as an inserted section in Timeout. We shot first thing in the morning...after Jamie had finished eating his huevos rancheros. A lovely lifestyle shoot in central London.
Le Comptoir Général
I was recently commissioned to travel to France to shoot this quirky lifestyle travel feature on Le Comptoir Général in Paris. The LCG, as it is known, is run like a department store, with concessions operated by an eclectic bunch of traders. Most of the staff have links with Africa, cross-continental characters who effortlessly mix what they term ‘ghetto cool’ from homelands like Morocco or Togo with Parisian flair to create the kind of edgy street style spotted in New York or London but rarely seen in France’s highly polished capital. Here a a few of the characters I met.
