Hooky for MOJO
28 November 2012
What a life he's had so far and still with loads of fire in his tumtum. We squeezed into his funny little hotel bedroom and shot this for MOJO and it looks great on the page, really clean and really just how any snapper would love to see his work used. Full bleed and no words!

MTV EMA Magazine spread
20 November 2012
Shot the greatest spread the other day, for the MTV EMA magazine featuring THE CREAM of the London nightclub scene. I loved every second of the shoot and the results look just as planned which is a plus. Lots of challenges but that's ok. Tom Ralph made us a vid, have a squizz on here.

Red carpet catchflash with Carly Rae Jepsen. I know!
13 November 2012
Very hectic, loads of shouting, elbows and quick editing. Funny the spots you find yourself in.

PSY in Frankfurt for MTV EMA
13 November 2012
Proper madness at EMAs in Frankfurt. Am the official MTV snapper for the brand team so I shoot red carpet, the show, the sponsor activity, huge afterparty, all sorts. It's quite hectic. But where else would I be that weekend? The Caribbean maybe but that's it.

Beth Orton at HoSB

Still got it, in spades. I must enquire what that expression means some day. Anyway - Beth, yes, sounded beautiful in the chapel, like it was designed for her, which in many ways it kind of was.

Andrew Weatherall at House of St Barnabas
09 November 2012
Oh man. I have loved this guy for so long. His every move is the least obvious choice and here he was, curating a fund raiser for the great work at House of St Barnabas and as you can see, a delight to shoot. Super friendly and he rocks a strong look. Great. I thanked him for two wonderful moments in my life - as a Plymouth-based, early 90s raver, I travelled to see him DJ in Exeter and went up after a killer set to shake the legend's hand (like you could back then). He said 'Did you like that last tune?', I replied in the positive and he thrust it into my hand without a second thought. I made him reluctantly sign it and I still cherish it today. The other time was shooting him 10 years ago for an American music mag and I'd unwisely sought advice from this bloody friend who said he hated being photographed, hated flash, will want it done quick o'clock. I was then dreading the shoot inevitably as I really didn't want to dislike the guy, but he was a really generous subject and indulged my ideas and gave me time and his patience for a delightful shoot, with great results and a memory I'll cherish. Andrew Weatherall - thank you for another quality experience at House of St Barnabas.

Trailer Trash Tracys for The Fly
05 November 2012
Like the quickest shoot ever, an old school 36 frames (digital snappers - this number will mean nothing to you but that's a roll of film. FILM. I know, impractical, expensive, exclusive and therefore undemocratic, but gorgeous. I miss it sometimes. Not all times). Any road, this lot are the easiest to shoot and with a simple lighting set up and no processing at all, we nailed it in minutes. Who likes long shoots? Not me.

Melody's Echo Chamber
05 November 2012
Is very talented and lovely. You know this. Nice shoot with her, wandering about, playing with a light, a reflector, lens flare, the sun. Light is my medium supposedly, so the cliche goes.
