Great to see my Halifax Thunderbirds ads I shot for Adam & Eve DDB up on billboards all over the place. Was also great to become part of Thunderbirds history at the same time. My shoot was the last time the Thunderbirds were filmed and photographed in the original studio that Gerry Anderson set up all those years ago, sadly now the studio is being knocked down. Was great to get to see it and all the amazing sets and meet the famous puppets
Happy Easter/mothers day from Sainsbury's
Great to see more of my Sainsbury's launch campaign out and about, this time for Mothers day and now Easter.
Shot for the wonderful guys at Wiedens.
Don't forget it!

Last month I shot the latest Marmite campaign for Adam & Eve DDB with creative team - Tom Webber and Nick Sheppard.
It has to be one of the most enjoyable shoots I've worked on for a long time, from start to finish. Sometimes you get layouts sent through and you can tell straight away that it's going to be a great ad, this was no exception. It's such a clever and simple idea, and the way they wanted it shot was right up my street!
All the guys from A&EDDB and Marmite were great to work with. It was a fun couple of days shoot, if not a little sticky at times! (I've just about got the smell of Marmite off my Camera gear).
Wesley West had a great time making all the prop products that are in the cupboards. I helped out by shooting the food photography for the packaging, I couldn't resist having my photo's in one of my photos!
The TV ads they've created are also great and very funny and are causing a bit of a stir right now, as you've probably seen!
My posters are going up around the UK on 48 sheet posters and 6 sheet - keep an eye out for them.
Why not visit the Marmite site and help end Marmite neglect!
But don't report us here, I promise we will get through all of theses soon enough!
Been a good week this week my Marmite work got featured in Luerzer's Archive and got awarded best outdoor on best ads
Was great seeing my work out and about.
