My latest project Cabin Crew is on-line now. Guardian Weekend Magazine ran some of the images in today’s issue. You can see the project and the short film I made to accompany it here:
Left my house this morning, drove around the corner, and noticed someone has stenciled one of my images that appeared on the cover of the Sunday Times Magazine on the side of a house of Regents Park Road in Primrose Hill …..very strange, yet good for the ego…. I must admit I’m a little guilty of NIMBY ism here…. To whoever did it, would you be a good chap bugger-off and do that kind of thing in Shoreditch?
I went to the National Portrait Gallery today to look at the Irving Penn exhibition before it comes down at the weekend, and my Armstrong and Miller portrait is currently hanging in the ‘People of Today’ gallery. I shot it for the Independent on Sunday magazine.

New ‘Seven Wonders of the Solar System’ publicity photo of Brian Cox for the BBC for the new series. I shot him over at TV Centre in their studio there. Turns out I photographed him years before when he was in Manchester poodle-rockers Dare. Most of the people I photographed in rock bands in the late eighties didn’t go on to be professors of physics it has to be said….

I shot this in Brent Mosque for this week’s Sunday Times magazine.

This week’s Independent New Review magazine fitness special – Running in a gym or fell running? … or in my case dragging lights across a field in Northamptonshire at 7.30 am (ok, leading the way whilst assistant Ben drags lights…) or breakfast in Kensington, then a quick stroll across the road into a Virgin Active. The fell-runner’s warm-up was my idea of a serious run. but is he happy….?

Nice spread on the Fishermen’s Friends in this week’s Telegraph Magazine. Part of the press shoot I did for Island Records a few weeks ago down in Cornwall. Read the feature here.

Port Isaac’s Fishermen’s Friends album goes in at number nine in this week’s album chart. Ian their manager tells me it’s the first time a folk debut album has charted this high.I shot the album cover in Feb, and then went back down to Cornwall a couple of weeks ago to do press shots. February was freezing…not too bad this time now the weather is getting better. Had ice-creams on the beach before embarking on the long drive back to London. They are signed to Island Records.
Nice plug for the show in today’s Irish Times arts section. It recommends it in its ‘things to visit this weekend’ section. Click here to see.

Cole Morton and I trawl the UK in search of the full English breakfast and what it really means to be British for the Sunday Times Magazine.

I had this week’s cover of The Sunday Times Magazine. The feature is about soldiers returning from the Middle East with post traumatic stress and then being dumped back into society to fester. In the cases of all three I photographed, they ended up going to prison. I shot Mick and his dog in Liverpool near Everton’s ground. I felt pretty safe with all the lights set up in the street – I had a feeling that we weren’t going to get much trouble from anyone! Here’s the DPS and some of the other images from the feature. You can read Ed Caesar’s Sunday Times feature here (as it was he who wrote and researched the story).

I have a show at the Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival in Belfast at the end of this month. Private view is 29th April at the Black Box Cafe. All welcome. I’m doing a talk at the University of Ulster in the afternoon at the invitation of Paul Seawright and Donovan Wylie – both of whose work I admire greatly… (DW should’ve won the Deutsche Börse Prize… ) which I’m quite excited about. There’s lots of other happenings during the festival including comedy, music, spoken word, theatre, dance and visual arts.

I had this spread in today’s Eureka magazine that comes with the Times…. like the layout that the designer has done.
Spent the morning getting my frames out of storage and negotiating all the speed bumps in NW1, ready to be collected for the Belfast Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival that I’m in at the end of the month. Loads of them – can’t move around without whacking into them. The carriers come soon though.. space will be mine once more….
