REVISITING EXHIBITION Jan - Feb 2023

So all done and dusted.

My first Solo exhibition was in January. Curated by Mindy Lee at Blyth Arts, the show was the first time I had shown these portraits in a Gallery - the first time I had exhibited in a decade.

This may seem like a long time, but is indicative of how I see my work, and how the function of an editorial photographer differs from the job of an artist. Taking these images out of their usual area is quite fun - the days they were up filled me with an immense pride, and validated all I have learned working alongside some fantastic people for the many magazines, newspapers and commercial projects I have undertaken.

I held two talks and a walkthrough which, although initially terrifying, has only made me happier about what I do and the experience and ability I can call upon in the future.

There’s another in the pipeline …

Ulrika Jonsson for Lumen

Ulrika Jonsson has signed up for Lumen, the dating App. She was chosen to be the face of their Christmas Ads - and I was delighted when they asked me to shoot the images in the same style as last year’s successful campaign.

It was Ulrika’s first photoshoot for 10 years, though you’d never have guessed. Thanks to the amazing team for helping to make some fantastic images.
