Daisy May Cooper | Guardian Saturday Magazine
Absolute glitterball Daisy May Cooper photographed for the Guardian Saturday Magazine cover.
This shoot was pure fun, with Halloween themes setting the mood for Daisy’s new book, 'Hexy Bitch'.
Jojo Moyes X BBC Maestro
My portraits of writer JoJo Moyes, photographed a little while ago in London. The autumnal colours of the set and wardrobe complemented the portraits beautifully. These images were taken to promote JoJo's writing course, now available on BBC Maestro
Annabel Croft X Swiss Tourism
Thanks to a fantastic commission from Swiss Tourism and The Telegraph, I had the opportunity to explore Switzerland’s beautiful Jungfrau region earlier this year, alongside the lovely Annabel Croft, former tennis star and commentator.
Reenactment | Knight
A knight in shining armour, Dominic and his beautiful Friesian cross stallion Faraon.
Having someone in full steel-plated armor, mounted on a colossal horse, charging towards you at full tilt is quite the intimidating experience. Having felt the rumbling, thundering hooves and clanking metal plates, I can clearly see why, six centuries ago, these imposing juggernauts would have been a terrifying sight and sound on the medieval battlefield. Dominic aptly compared medieval knights to the battle tanks of their era. For those familiar, this also brings back fond memories of the pilot episode of Game of Thrones and the jousting tournament.
Carla Denyer | Green Party
Green Party Co-Leader and newly elected MP for Bristol Central, Carla Denyer. This 5-minute portrait was taken the morning after the general election. Despite not having slept since the previous night's count, Carla was beaming, happily posing for selfies with well-wishers and chatting with her new constituents. Clearly running on pure elation (and probably lots of coffee).
George Mombiot
A few weeks ago, I photographed George Monbiot for an article in the Guardian Saturday magazine.The subject matter was both interesting and relevant – exploring the proliferation of conspiracy theories and Monbiot's conversation with Jason Liosatos, a prominent conspiracy theorist
Giancarlo Esposito
News of Francis Ford Coppola's forthcoming film 'Megalopolis' debuting at Cannes in May prompted me to share these recent portraits of actor Giancarlo Esposito, which I'm fond of.
I photographed Giancarlo while collaborating with the BBC Maestro team as they filmed the artist Jonathan Yeo painting his portrait in Yeo's West London studio.
Rise Of The Machines
Pure image generation as well as artificial intelligence based tools are advancing at an breathtaking pace. Photoshop Firefly is both amazing and terrifying. I'm all for embracing change, but I cannot help but wonder what mine and any other visual artists future holds. These next few years are going to be a wild ride. How do others feel about this unchartered territory?
*These are both photographs I have taken, but they could quite easily have been AI generated.
