What a joy working with Odhran and Georgia on these photos for Vittles. Recipes by Songsoo Kim, Melek Erdal and Ixta Belfrage - three of the most exciting food writers and chefs. All shot upstairs at Quality Wines. Commissioned by Odhran O’Donoghue, tested and styled by Georgia Rudd.
Cast a Thought in Kent is a CIC working with children, young people and adults with mental health or long term health conditions, as well as adults at risk of isolation.
Shot for Bloomberg Pursuits on social prescribing - aka the doctor’s (holistic) orders to spend time doing activities with others - for better health outcomes. ‘Loneliness is on the rise globally and the ever-increasing cohort of older people is especially vulnerable.’
Thank you Halie, everyone at Cast a Thought and big up Rich for the underwater housing that sadly wasn’t used.
Knee deep in some of the most beautiful gardens in south east England for the current issue of T+L. With gratitude to Scott for the commission and the incredible gardeners for their generosity and time.
BAFTA Style Suites at The Savoy. Biggest thanks to Rebecca and Claire for the commission and to Leica UK for the opportunity to shoot with the gorgeous Leica Q3 43. Live post prod by my favourite Relampago Studio. Lots of great people and fantastic work. Awesome shooting alongside two brilliant women photographers too. Personal highlight has to be the inimitable Warwick Davis who kindly offered to send my Star Wars obsessed children the sweetest video ✨
Great bowls of brothy joy for the FT Weekend Appetites cover story written by Tim Hayward and edited by Harriet Fitch Little.
