Neneh Cherry
Its been more than 20 years since Raw Like Sushi, and having just released her first solo album in 18 years in February, Blank Project, I get to catch up with the singer at her London home. Landing that morning from Cuba, I find Neneh in fine form despite sleep deprivation, check-in queue and wardrobe issues. Moments after the shoot she’s heading straight off to Stockholm…

DJ Avicii
ES Magazine
From making catchy tunes in his bedroom , to becoming one of the world’s biggest DJ’s at the age of 24, we find Avicii in fine form pre show and back stage at London’s Earls Court. Already a millionaire, DJ Avicii’s path to fame and fortune has been a rapid one which initially led to excesses which saw the young DJ end up in hospital twice.
Now more level headed, Stockholm’s music master is global success, which also means his schedule is tight, I had to work wonders in the 30 minute slot the DJ had time for.
Moments after the shoot, Avicii is on stage in front of 18,000 hands-in-the air fans going completely nuts…

Cobra
Karmarama
After months of searching high and low for the Cobra man, the perfect Boss was found.
Shooting both in the studio, and also on location at one of London’s many own working brewery’s, I captured the Boss in his role at work & play… brewery owner by day for Cobra, and bra factory owner by night at Bra’co !
Coupling the 48 sheet campaign with precision lighting, my images were created to match the brands slick new identity.

Looking for the coveted No 1 spot this Christmas and fresh on the heels of his successful Palladium show, Robbie Williams has released a new version of his 45, Dream a Little Dream.
Whilst the album version features Lilly Allen dueting, the single version sees Robbie release a newly recorded version. I was present last time round when the songster had his first ever Christmas number one with Nicole Kidman collaborating on Something Stupid.

Sir Elton John & Gary Barlow
May bank holiday found us early doors in Abbey Road Studios with Sir Elton John and Gary Barlow. We were there to document the pair recording the their new duet Face to Face from Gary’s new long player.
Professional to the hilt, there was no hanging about as they nailed the track in super fast time with Sir Elton making the dash to Wembley to see his beloved Watford in the Championship play off final.
