  • Children Go Where I Send You

    Children Go Where I Send You

    Fashion commission for Jylle Navarro's collection styled by Joanna Hir. This shoot evokes an apocalyptic playground. Models Ira N Gash and Marc Jordan. Make Up by Gregory Kara.

  • Mosh The Healing

    Mosh The Healing

    Fashion commission for Dovile Visockaite's collection "Mosh the Healing". This shoot looks at the link between the cathartic elements of moshing and visual connection between tribal and punk cultures.

  • Kuklophobic

    Kuklophobic

    This commission is for fashion designer Inka Polakovicova incorporating her collection's inspiration which was based on her fear of the circus.

  • Suspiria

    Suspiria

    Inspired by the extreme lighting in Dario Argento's masterpiece "Suspiria" this is a fashion series created for designer Jylle Navarro. This was a collaboration with photographer Ilana Baxter, Model Christopher Perry and the fashion designer and stylist Jylle Navarro.

  • Chasteness of Sea-Girls

    Chasteness of Sea-Girls

    Inspired by the dark visceral beauty of e.e.cummings poem "I will wade out" this unedited shoot takes the uninhibited movements of two female models and transforms the garments, by Jylle Navarro, into hallucinatory, organic, living creatures. I wanted to juxtapose the idea of the goddess incited by the rituals of tribes and the monsters induced by night terrors.

  • Emilia

    Emilia

    This series of images is a reflection of the mentally ill who exist in the suburbs of Britain; Using the "stupor" to reflect the terminality of the subjects mind frame and to disjoint the seemingly pleasant veneer of suburban living. The images aim to present a slowly disturbing vision that exposes the dark underbelly of residential life.

  • 05:14am 29th November 1998

    05:14am 29th November 1998

    This series explores themes of the hidden and contained lives of people living in suburbia.

  • Oryctolagus cuninculus

    Oryctolagus cuninculus

    This series explores the idea of a dystopian suburban landscape populated by uncanny masked civilians. I was inspired by the film "The Wicker Man" and by the idea of children playing in summer. I wanted my models to elicit a strangely childlike presence subverted by the dark tone of the work. The masks were designed by artist Gemma Lipscomb on commission.

  • Conflict

    Conflict

    This project was made in reaction to the idea of Judeo-Christian iconography and its link to bondage. I wanted to create a series of disturbing images that juxtapose two inevitably linked yet seemingly opposed sectors of humanity.

  • Moist

    Moist

    This series was inspired by the idea of abstraction and detail.

  • Hare Krsna

    Hare Krsna

    This was a series of portraits of the Ganga Matas Hare Krsna temple in Plaistow.

  • Lepidoptera

    Lepidoptera

    This fashion series draws it main influence from the sinister beauty and fragility of Moths

  • Anatomy / Intimacy / Voyeurism

    Anatomy / Intimacy / Voyeurism

    This series aims to explore three seperate yet ultimately interlinked ideas by tracing a persons body with the camera. I wanted to express the clinical side of anatomy with the closeness of intimately knowing a persons body. However using the disruption of personal space I wanted to invoke a feeling of voyeurism to effectively disorientate the viewer. Inspired greatly by sculpture and autopsy imagery I wanted to force the viewer into an uncomfortable position yet at the same time show the textural beauty of the surface of the skin.

  • America

    America

    This project was created for a project entitled America. I wanted to show a fractured account of the perfect couple through a series of private interiors as a reflection of the American Dream.

  • Study

    Study

    This is a study of the body as Sculpture; It serves as a companion piece to my two other abstraction series (Moist and Anatomy/Intimacy/Voyeurism). I wanted to create inhuman grotesqueries using nothing but a body and cropping in camera. Focusing on the idea of the orifice as the most taboo subject of photographic close ups.
