‘Works for me’

Just received some layouts from the Northern Rock shoot.

It is always exciting to see your work in print, on a website or bus shelter!

Down on Worthy Farm

At the beginning of April I went down to Worthy Farm, in Somerset, the home of the Glastonbury festival as well as farm & home of Michael Eavis and his daughter Emily.
The Marie Claire team was made most welcome and to meet both of them was a real pleasure, it was just a shame the weather didn’t think so!

The Cows had just been let out for the first time that year so looked very happy, especially as the first swallows of the year were flying amongst them.

My Dance project

I have finally started a new project that I’ve wanted to do for ages.
I am planning to do a series of portraits of dancers, and to contrast two images together, one of energy, movement & space.
The other of a quietness & silence, in a more confined space.
Thank you to:
