Photographed several olympic hopefuls for Lloyds in the run-up to the big event, here’s the boxer Anthony Joshua who got Britain’s last and, let’s not forget, 29th gold medal. On the right is the boxing team captain Tom Stalker, who wasn’t so lucky losing 23-22, 1 point from a medal.

Some people are made for each other..

Lambeth hoop dreams

Community basketball project in Lambeth for Nike last month – really great group with their inspiring coach Jay Williams – absolutely loved it, really photogenic subject matter, stayed much longer than planned..

Lightning Bolt – the fastest man who has ever lived..till next week at least..

The shoot was a brochure for a language school at a Uni in north London last summer. Shot some students on the tennis courts, then wandering back to do some classroom shots, see some people on the athletics track. Several double takes later and after a check with bystanders, we realise that it’s the Jamaican national sprint team getting some training in, including the fastest man who’s ever lived, Usain Bolt.

Keen not to get moved on, interrupt anything or indeed get ejected from the premises with my job unfinished, I made a point of not using either of the cameras hanging round my neck whilst he was running, thinking that I might get a chance to ask to get a portrait when he’s finished, if I’m well behaved. Awesome 15 mins or so watching him and the others go through their paces with just a handful of people around – unfortunately still had work to do, so just grabbed 2 shots when I figured no one was looking, and that I wouldn’t get thrown out..

Liberty night shoot

A late/early one yesterday at Liberty, shooting a brilliant new installation by Hotel Creative for Nike.

State Opening of Parliament 2012

One of the more memorable commissions of the last 20 years with great access shooting in the House of Lords, for the House of Lords.

Amsterdam Burlesque

Backstage and frontstage at a series of ‘Burlesque’ shows in Amsterdam – I’d like to point out that I was commissioned by the producers, photographing scantily clad ladies is clearly something I’d only do for money, forced by the pressures of paying a mortgage and bringing up 2 kids etc..
