Repatriation

The repatriation of the 100th soldier killed this year in Afghanistan took place today in Wotton Bassett. Family and members of the public paid their respect to Lance Corporal Adam Drane, 23 from Bury St Edmunds who was killed in Helmand province last Monday (7th December 2009).

A few pictures taken, Friday 30/10/09, of rehearsals of the musical Through the Door which is being shown at Trafalgar Studios, London.

Window...

Cafe

Just a quick pic from a shoot earlier on today in Kennington.

Hampton Court Palace

Just a couple of images taken in Hampton Court Palace (Sunday 9th).

The Night Before

Snapped on Sunday morning. Something strange obviously happened to the sign and now headless pigeon the night before in Vauxhall.

Sky Snap

Just a quick snap of the sky outside. The clouds looked so unreal tonight after the heavy rain earlier on.

Going Underground

I quite liked this snap from last night. I was trying to take photos at a friends event, Going Underground in East London. The 'cabaret style' night was held in an old warehouse in Shoreditch, London. I loved the way the space was lit, with pockets of light and shadow. I didn't shoot much - but this snap is quite cool.

SOHO FIRE - Dean Street, London

Pictures from the blaze in Soho, Central London. More than 60 firefighters are tackling the fire which started in a building in Dean Street today.

Books

Just a snap of a bookshop along Charing Cross Road. I really liked the reflections from the street in the window.

Kenya Images

Just a few more images from Kibera. Taken on 9th April.

Kenya - The Kibera Slum

Sorry for the lack of posts while I've been away. It's been tricky to get online. Anyway here are a couple of images a shot in the Kibera Slum in Nairobi. It's the second biggest in the world with over one million occupants.

Nico-D

Nico-D at the Vauxhall Fashion Scout, London Fashion Week 2009 (Sunday).

Betty Jackson

Pictures from the Betty Jackson show in the BFC Tent at London Fashion Week 2009.

Fashion Week (Sunday)

I'm just in the media centre backstage after shooting the Betty Jackson catwalk show at ridiculous o'clock in the main tent. The designs were a little uninspiring, and bland. The pix are not too bad considering. I didn't have any tickets or passes so had to blag my way into the press section.

Spotted Dawn French, Lorraine Kelly and some random girl from All Saints. I'm three celebs up from the girls about town blog at Arts London News.

Anyway, I will post a couple of images from it when I get back tonight.

London Fashion Week

I've just got in from covering London Fashion Week.  I spent this afternoon in the Vauxhall Fashion Scout area covering the backstage and catwalk show of label Horace.

 

Picture Story

I'm just putting together and captioning a picture story I've been working on for the past few weeks. The story is a day in the life of a priest and I've finally decided on the opening image. Let me know what you think.
