Morrison's - Valentine's commercial






Valentine's Day has been and gone but I thought I'd share some pictures of myself and hand model/graphic designer/musician Dan Strange on our romantic Morrison's commercial. There were candles, rose petals, a gorgeous steak dinner and about twenty crew and agency watching our every move...how romantic!

7th Man Magazine - Andrej Pejic





John-Paul Pietrus is a wonderful photographer who has photographed some of the most beautiful women around the world, so I was delighted when he agreed to do my acting head shots.

I always love working with JP but this shoot was particularly special because super model Andrej Pejic was due to be on set. He is currently the poster boy for fashion androgyny and I must say he is very striking in the flesh.

Harpers Bazaar


These shots are for the November issue of Harpers Bazaar which is out now. I was working with my lovely friend and fellow hand model Nic Clarkson and gorgeous model Jessi Ann Gravel Beland. Nails done by the fabulous Leighton Denny using Purely Platonic from his AW11 Atmospheric range.

Nikon1 - Launching Thebighands.com







You know you love a job when the call time is 4.30am and you have a spring in your step! Forget that these 6 metre hands are mine for a second and just appreciate the concept and craftsmanship that went into the making of them. I just look up at them and think they're brilliant.
Kim and Sally at Brands2life weren't kidding about the cherry picker and once the light came up I was on it and cleaning the giant Nikon1 lens with Ginger from Specialist Models for company. Carl the photographer also had his turn on the cherry picker, which was not at all as scary as I thought it would be. Luckily I had the beautiful Sally-Ann to do my hair and makeup as I dread to think what I would have looked like at that time of the morning.

Nikon 1 - Making of thebighands.com










FINALLY...The launch has been and gone and it's safe to talk about it! After driving my family and friends mad, I can now reveal that the job I've been working on for the last four months, is for Nikon's new camera, Nikon1. To say I loved working on this campaign would be an understatement. I enjoyed every minute of it...working with Jonny at Brands2life, Greg at Nikon and all the boys in Cardiff at Specialist Models (Andy and Kristian for covering me in green gunge, Will, Ginger, Simon...).
These photos were taken at the warehouse in Cardiff where the guys at Specialist Models worked their magic.
