WPP Paris

Delighted to be commissioned by BDG architecture+design to photograph their design for WPP’s Paris Campus. A spectacular environment fashioned within what was originally the Citroën 2CV factory in Levallois-Perret, a western suburb of Paris. WPP’s Campus programme brings together a number of agencies under one roof providing space that can foster greater communication and working together.

London Southbank Fire Spinning

A pretty special event every month London’s fire-spinning community converges by the Thames, with the fire spinners doing their thing just after sunset on Ernie’s Beach in front of Gabriel’s Wharf. Keep an eye out on their Facebook page for the next event

My first visit and certainly a challenge to photograph… so many different options, my approach this time see below.

My initial idea and used to take these images. Long shutter speeds (c.3 secs) to capture the light trails and also set the fire spinning into its setting with the River Thames and City as a wonderful backdrop. Olympus EM1 II with 12-100mm f4 lens and combined stabilisation …one of the best for hand held long exposures

RLB at The Stonex

A dream assignment for me mixing work and sports. Quantity Surveyor’s RLB in preparation for the surveyors sevens tournament in May brought staff from across their UK offices to Saracens home at the Stonex Stadium in North London. Warm ups, touch rugby and netball followed by a social at the F1 experience in the evening. Such a great way to bring people together, promote team works and demonstrate some of the RLB principles
