Jiggery Pokery

I think there would be something fundamentally wrong with a person if they derived no pleasure from making and then modelling giant cardboard fruit/ lips. I'd kill for five minutes in the spotlight with an oversized melon.





This is the work of Anna and Lauren of Jiggery Pokery. Check out their website its brilliant.

Welcome to the world Little M! Love the newly renamed Big M xx

Arise You Gallant Sweeneys

Some of these photographs accompanied an article in the Guardian on Saturday. The article, Long Way Back was about the film, 'Arise You Gallant Sweeneys' a collaborative project between the men photographed and the artist, Ian Nesbitt. The film follows the group as they go home to Ireland for the first time since they were young men.

Wapping

This was taken at the Wapping Project. I'd just disembarked a small row boat which takes you around a dark, flooded room with a Yohji Yamamoto dress hung up upside down in the middle. Sounds bonkers and it is really but its beautiful.

Alice

Happy New Year! This is my first portrait for the Sunday Times Style magazine. Instead of giving anything up last January Alice (pictured) decided to learn new skills, like how to butcher a lamb and make origami. Much more civilised than a detox!

Miss Macabre

This is my last Assistant, the performance artist Miss Macabre. Rebecca was brilliant so thank you to her. Thanks also to Bill and his granddaughter Jayne who run the Rivoli Ballroom where we shot. The Rivoli is a perfectly preserved 1950's ballroom. If you haven't been it's definitely worth a visit.

Jessica Hynes

Hello! This was my first shoot for Good Housekeeping magazine. I was really excited to hear I'd be photographing Jessica Hynes (previously Stephenson) and she was lovely. Jessica is in the November issue on sale now. You also get a free Superfood recipe book. What more do you want?!
