He’s 6ft7inches, and has written a novel. And I photographed him for The Sunday Times Magazine. We danced, we laughed, we swore loudly. We had a lot of fun.
We also created a little film together at the end of our shoot.
It was a pleasure to work with the WWD Beauty Inc team for the first time, creating portraits for their special edition featuring Nicolas Hieronimus, this year’s recipient of the 2025 Pete Born Impact Award. Nicolas has this quiet confidence that steadies a room. While we shot, we talked about everything from cycling and music to life as the CEO of the world’s largest beauty company. A huge thank you to the Beauty Inc crew, and everyone who made the day run seamlessly. Read the full interview in WWD’s Beauty Inc: LINK
My first shoot for Harper’s Bazaar UK, and what a person to start with: Nia DaCosta, the boundary breaking film director. She was joy to collaborate with, happily putting her trust in the process, and leaning fully into my requests. Congratulations to Nia on her Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year director award, totally deserved. Read the interview here: LINK.

It was great to catch up with Mishal Husain to create portraits for her new show at Bloomberg, which features conversations with world leaders and pioneers. We’ve worked together before on her Observer Magazine cover, photographing in her mother’s living room. Needless to say, the Bloomberg newsroom was a rather different space, but she brought that same calm confidence and sharp presence. A huge thank you to Leonor Mamanna, the entire team at Bloomberg, Louise Heywood, and everyone else who ensured the day ran smoothly. Listen to the podcast on Apple, Spotify, or click here: LINK
When I’m in my 90s I want to be like Judi Dench – witty, mischievous and drinking champagne at lunch. The team at Die Zeit asked me to photograph Dame Judi with fellow actor Brendan O’Hea. She and Brendan are long-term friends and it shows – they play off each other, make fools of each other and laugh constantly. A joy to witness. The portraits accompany a beautiful interview feature about `The man who pays the rent’ – a series of informal and intimate conversations between Dame Judi and Brendan. The book has just been published in Germany. I am still pinching myself to believe this happened…
I’m honoured that this portrait of Tilda Swinton has been selected as a finalist for the 40th AOP awards. Huge thanks to Victor & Simon and the incredible Cartier team for helping make this special moment happen.
I loved sinking my teeth into the new adaptation of Bram Stoker’s horror classic, Dracula with Lyric Theatre. This is a show that truly uncovers the female voices at the heart of the tale, and I can’t wait to see it. It was a total pleasure to help bring art director Emilie Chen’s bold vision to life. We worked to create a look that is both powerful, unapologetic, and dripping with red light. The show’s leads Umi Myers and Mei Mac brought an awesome energy to the shoot, especially considering it was the hottest day of the year so far. Adapted by Morgan Lloyd Malcolm and directed by Emma Baggott, this is a theatrical thriller not to be missed.
Had a blast directing and photographing a tennis legend. Pop your sound on for the video. Safe to say, quality control was delicious on this one. Huge thanks to New Commercial Arts for trusting me with the vision.
