Its always a particular pleasure when the Guardian commissions me, as I know how many Photographers they have, and the quality they can call upon on a daily basis. Maya Jama, the Television and Radio Presenter was a joy to shoot, with a wicked sense of humour and endless patience. Below is the article, written by Joanna Moorhead.

This shot was taken whilst documenting Stephen's House/ Museum in Dulwich a couple of years ago. It is an amazing collection of found objects and re-fashioned dolls and toys created over the last two decades. Only open on a few days a month on average, perfect for lovers of Outsider Art. I found it incredibly moving hearing his stories of the objects and the driving force behind the project, it is a must see for anyone searching for those London secret gems we all harp on about endlessly.

Another portrait for BA Business Life Magazine. Michelle Kennedy is an entrepreneur who has developed an app called Peanut for Mums to find other Mums with similar interests. It uses the same principles as a dating app. Photographed in her shared space just off the Tottenham Court Road.
