I was contacted by the marketing team at Sketch, a quirky 18th century Mayfair teahouse that transforms into a cocktail bar and Michelin star restaurant each evening. Sketch is definitely one of the more interesting destinations I have had to shoot at recently and must be seen to be believed. The giant eggs in the bathroom complete with quacking ducks are a particular piece of interest for anyone who has not been.

Sketch commissioned me to shoot their afternoon tea in the unbelievably chic gallery room. It felt like it had been interior designed by Lady Penelope and the Spring/Summer afternoon tea was to die for.

This month Esquire Magazine has relaunched itself with a brand new look. The issue also announces Esquire's brand new food writer Restaurant Man, Russell Norman.I was lucky enough to be invited to Russell's beautiful South London family home to shoot the next six issues for his column The Reluctant Cook.

I was asked to photograph this beautiful cocktail created by bar manager Graham Lloyd-Bennett. As it's for the film awards Graham has sought inspiration in the release of Paddington.

I've been working up to a spot with Warburtons for some time with several scripts coming to my door. I was delighted to finally work with Sarah and Gavin at WCRS on this online film for thins.The brief was to do something completely new for the Warburtons look, keeping it fresh and contemporary. We had four recipes to showcase in a very small space of time so it's more of a flavour of ideas than a full instructional. I'm really pleased with the results, it's live on Warburtons' social media channels now.

This was filmed back in February 2015.

I was extremely excited to see the brand new Weight Watchers commercial air during the Superbowl in the USA. I was commissioned by Wieden Kennedy Portland to direct some of (not all of) the shots of the full ad.In addition they also licensed some of the Creme Brûlée shots too. It's a superb bit of creative from WK. Great work also from my Production company at the time P for Production to deliver this over the Christmas period.

At the end of 2014 Honest Burgers opened a new restaurant on Clapham's Venn Street (Clapham Common Tube). It has their usual rustic fitting and trademark green. They have done a fine job as ever.

I was commissioned to shoot some new breakfast menu items, here's a couple below. Rolling out in Clapham at weekends is the Full English Breakfast Platter - perfect for two to share, a portion for one is also available. Then there's the Honest Beans (some gorgeous pancetta, onions, herbs and secret sweet but smokey sauce there) on Guinness eggy bread. Delightful.

At the end of 2014 I was commissioned by the Soho House group to shoot two films teaching you how to make two of their house cocktails, The Soho Negroni and the Eastern Standard. We shot in Pizza East in the Tea building in Shoreditch as Tom Kerr taught us the delicacies of french bitters. Then in Shoreditch Houses Library Bar where Lauren Shaw showed us the fine art of cucumber muddling and cocktail shaking.

In addition to some brand new specials Honest have a new site and a new breakfast menu. Have a look at the amazing new site in Widegate Street E1, about 5mins walk from London Liverpool Street station. 

With the new site comes a new breakfast menu rolling out from today in the Liverpool Street site only. I've been holding onto these images for some time but I can finally show you these treats.

I've been back shooting for one of my favourite clients Honest Burgers. I ate here before I started working for them and i've only eaten there more since we have started working together, in short... I love this place.

We've been photographing their latest and a few more future specials. Last month was the Oktoberfest special and this month is the Spicy Mexican special

Announcing an East London branch of HONEST BURGERS. Phil, Tom, Dorian & the team have done a fantastic job once again as the new site is a gem. The outside is covered in beautiful white tiles giving it a modern New York feel. It however keeps it's London roots with it's beautiful art deco rails and pillars in the traditional Honest Burgers green.

It's here, the HONEST BURGERS Christmas special, beef, smoked bacon, deep fried camembert, cranberry sauce & rocket. Each year Honest Burgers put this back on the menu for the whole month of December. It’s outrageously delicious and one of their best selling specials.

For restaurants, pubs & bars it is incredibly important to capture the real feeling of the place in the photography, not just a document of the food available on the menu. 

Is it bright & airy, it is dark and moody? Is the food fine dining or is it a gluttonous dirty burger that is a treat or a hangover cure. All of the story needs to be told in the pictures you use to promote your menu.

Chocolate Photography test for the portfolio shot with food stylist Natalie Thomson. We wanted the shots to be clean and simple focusing on indulgent textures, fruits, powders and drips.

Cocktail Photography from Drinks Photographer Scott Grummett. Shooting for bowling alley, cocktail bar and American style diner restaurant All Star Lanes.

Commission for Esquire magazine shooting their Man Food issue.I was lucky enough to be part of three separate shoot for this issue, a tasty manly cover, a feature on appliances and a piece on 5 Dishes every man should be able to cook as written by Robin Gill at The Dairy.

I was lucky enough to be commissioned by the kind folks at Bacchus PR to shoot for Diageo, a giant of the drinks industry. I was gaining press & pr materials for their annual World Class bar tending competition. For those new to World Class, this is the Oscars of bar tending, the World Cup Final if you will. Bartender's have been competing for month's and then a lucky winner from each region to battle it out to win the title of World Class Global Champion.

In November 2014 I was invited by the Unlisted Collection to shoot the restaurants at The Town Hall Hotel.

Another film from early in my showreel. Working with brilliant DOP/Cinematographer Dave Miller we created another recipe film this time based around a curry, this time a Lamb Dopiaza.

It’s May 2014 and there is another brand spanking addition to the ever growing Honest Burger roster. Their new home is on London's Marketplace on the corner of Great Titchfield Street, right behind Oxford Street. It's bright and airy and has loads of outdoor seating.

The guys commissioned me to shoot some interiors of the new place, heres just a few of them.

I was commissioned in April 2014 to shoot for Esquire. Champion Picture Editor Carl Palmer and I worked together snapping wine from unfashionable regions; Turkey, Slovenia, Tazmania, Santorini and England.
