Led by Art

April 10, 2021

A mate of mine - the lovely Gabriella Havens (Insta @GabiHavens) - did a pretty cool Instagram post a short while ago which inspired me to create an artistic post of my own. The results are below:

I put this together using a combination of Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, and it literally defines me being led by art. I’m not the most natural of illustrators, but I am a sucker for a good bit of artwork! This will explain why I have visited the Saatchi Gallery so many times!

Let me know your thoughts on this piece, or simply visit my Instagram here!

Via Hoxton Streets - Part 1

May 28, 2019

It has been a busy Tuesday - one straight after the Bank Holiday (which incidentally I had no time to “chill” on) - and I am sitting in Costa Coffee photo-editing, but realising I need to share with you these awesome shots I captured of friend, musician, and creative associate Jumee recently in Hoxton!

Someone walked past and joked: “who do you think you are…David Bailey??” as I crouched really low to capture this shot at the angle I have. I simply grinned and said, “maybe”. I want to be the best I can be in my fields of interest [graphic design and photography] and will do whatever it takes…

The feel I was looking for in these shots was very much ‘urban’ and that ‘I run the fashion on these blocks’ type of feel - interpret that as you may! I feel I have achieved it, but would love to know your thoughts!

I will be sure to drop more across my photography Instagram very soon; and a few on here of Aaron Anderson which I captured this very same day!

I always really enjoy working with these guys!

Happy Tuesday all :)

Notting Hill Mendrilla

March 4, 2019

Recently I had the honour of photographing friend and fashion stylist Reena Lakhani on the streets of Notting Hill - streets that are amongst some of my favourites ever! She’s photographed wearing a stunning bespoke hand-painted Mandali Mendrilla 2-piece!

The shot I captured above using my Nikon prime lens (50mm) has to be one of my favourites of this year already!

Why? Because this look was captured by chance :)

London Fashion Week Festival 2018

February 25, 2018

For roughly the last five years, I have always had a strong desire to be at anything in relation to London Fashion Week (be it the five-day event or the weekend event). Typically, I have missed the events primarily due to not realising in time that they are happening. By the time I have realised, the event is either in process, or has fully passed.
