Shooting babies is something most photographers dread, but with a little planning and consideration it can be both fun and relatively painfree for both photographer and baby. Some of the basic rules to follow are: Have enough babies! Most babies tire quickly, so they must have short sessions. It is better to book more babies for [...]

Just found out I took the 3rd place in this years Prix De La Photographie in the fashion category. This year it was images from Sofie Schnoor’s Spring Summer 2010 catalogue. It is of course an honour to recieve such recognition, and to be in the top three, two years running.

Working with a client over several seasons offers a unique opportunity to explore and develop a visual style unique to the brand. With Sofie Schnoor I have had this priviledge. The challenge is to maintain the things that worked well in previous seasons, but at the same time refine and develop the look. This year [...]

I was asked to shoot the AW2010 collection for a very interesting new client Poppy and Ned London. We shot in an old Vicarage in a village in Nottinghamshire, an awesome location. We had real snow, lovely kids and a great day out. It was a cold days shooting, but kids, parents and crew kept a [...]

We recently completed SS10 for Petit by Sofie Schnoor, in a wonderful country house. Sofie is always pushing to develop and renew her visual expression which makes my job really interesting. There has always been a sense of romantic melancholy in Sofies images, but this year we wanted to expand the range of emotions, even [...]

Being asked to exhibit images at the launch of Kidvertising Agency in Århus, Denmark, was a great honour. The agency has existed for many years under the name TNJ and have developed specialized knowledge in the field of ‘Kidvertising’. http://www.kidvertising.dk/ I decided that I would come up with a project specifically for them (rather than [...]

Shooting for Sofie Schnoor is such an interesting venture. Sofie’s vison is very precise, she likes it dark, romantic and melancholic. So the challenge for me is to represent that, but also to produce images that will sell lots of her beautiful luxurious clothes. We had a great day shooting and everything went perfectly according [...]

When shooting this campaign we went looking for at good space to shoot kids in a performance/audition situation. The space needed to look the part without being cluttered and it needed to be big enough for the kind of images we had imagined. We found just the space at Arken Museum of Modern Art south [...]
