Lucy Rose graces The Fly's inaugural multi-cover issue. Her first cover but there will be more and she's a worthy songstress oh yes: http://www.lucyrosemusic.co.uk/

Well played John.

Wonderfully fun studio shoot with John McCririck. Obviously he's a great character but also a proper pro - shooting stills is a very speedy process when compared with TV work, so I relied on Tom Andrew's lighting skills to ensure a slick process then got John in to do his thing in about 4 minutes and 30 frames. He made it very easy, both before the makeover and after... More info here, race fans: http://www.lovetheraces.com/

So it's been quite a year. Loads of memorable stuff and some whoppers at the end of the year too - just back from a great shoot in Jamaica and we're also doing 6 covers for The Fly's January issue (shooting that has been quite a challenge I assure you). Can't release any of this yet though so here's Jackson Browne for Mojo, from July this year, which though very low key was just a wonderfully pure moment with a name I've loved since I was a kid - big thanks to Tom Bunning there for his lightsmanship. Thanks to all of you for viewing my site this year - and of course your invaluable feedback which spurs me on no end. The very best of love and luck to you in 2012, cheers all.

The loveliest deepest most luxurious of sounds, if you like house anyway. Which I do. Freerange is here, many congrats on making it to 15 chaps, we love you.

Loads of my edits on the new Fly website, so if you're interested in what I send in to the mag - have a squizz here. Please ignore all the shit ones and dwell on the ones you like. Thanks.

I could have picked any of a dozen frames of Chairlift - they know how to be shot. They're American. They try to look good in shoots. OK - they were an hour late - but I'm not one to bare a grudge. Nope. Not me, uh uh.

Wearing that jumper and brooch, ain't she lovely?

(Other than someone's yard in Kisumu, Kenya) but if I ever have a book, I might call it that.

A rocking 3 days in Belfast. Thousands of shots and even more laughs. Thanks MTV. Tx
