I have been taking pictures for Manhattan Kitchens for several years now and have shot their extensive range for their catalogues and website. They have recently refitted their showroom with a new range of modern kitchens, with clever features to make the most of available space. This one features a hidden sink and beer machine that all neatly hide behind the high gloss doors when not in use.

You can see the whole range at // manhattan.co.uk

The Middle House restaurant in the Sussex village of Mayfield is well worth a visit if you are a fan of good food. This grade one listed building in the center of the village dates back to 1575 and has a wonderfully warm atmosphere.
Earlier this year I took a series of shots for the new Middle House website. Working closely with Head Chef, Mark Ehrler, I wanted to showcase the stunning level of food that comes out of the Middle House kitchen. Makes me hungry again just thinking about it, I can recommend the trio of lamb.

The Middle House also owns the Deli in the village which offers a great range local produce and fine wines and if you fancy staying in for dinner, you can take away one of the tempting meals from the kitchen menu as they also sell them for the freezer.

Scott Roberts takes his food very seriously; the quality of the locally sourced ingredients, the marriage of flavours, the presentation – all have to be just right. And with such high standards it comes as no surprise that Scott has held 2AA Rosettes for the past six years. His restaurant, The Dining Club in Deal, which he runs with his wife Suzanne is more like a private dinner party and is a must visit.

Here are a few of the creations I shot for Scott, I must say I loved the Venison.

You can find The Dining Club at 69 Middle Street, Deal, Kent

Earlier this month I had a whistle stop tour of the French alps on a shoot for Tui Travel.
We were out for four coffee fuelled days and stopped off in about five resorts ticking off the shots. No time for skiing though as once one hotel was shot it was back in the snow chain equipped peugeot and down the valley to the next resort. Still it is always nice to be out in the mountains and we came home with some great shots.

interior photography for carine harrington

Here’s a peak at another property I shot recently for interior designer Carine Harrington. The owners had been inspired by the beach apartments in the Maldives which lead Carine to incorporate the wood paneling into the room as a clever storage area for all the family’s AV tech.

The chimney breast was clad in black stone tiles which gave a great contrast to all the wood whilst tying in the black Eames furniture and leather sofa. Despite the use of black and dark wood the room retains its light airiness thanks to the large white bay window with louvred shutters, which can easily be tilted to let in light without the loss of privacy.

P&O Ferries have been sailing back and forth to Europe and Ireland on a daily basis for years, for many it is a great way to travel and you can take your own car. I was recently commissioned to take some shots onboard on two of the routes for P&O’s brochures. The first trip was an over night crossing from Hull to Rotterdam. The ship stays in dock all day in the Euro Port and so it was great to have it pretty much to ourselves to get the shots done before passengers came back onboard for the return journey. The next day saw a very early start to capture some shots up on the bridge at dawn as we came back to England past Spurn Head. I must say this was a very mellow place to spend a couple of hours, however that early out on deck the wind was ferocious and bitterly cold.

The next leg of the shoot was on the Troon to Larne in Ireland and then back to Cairnryan in Scotland. This needed to be fast paced to get the shots we required as the crossing was only just over an hour and the ships did not stay in port for long. I was glad of the mid week crossing as both ships were quiet and as they were quite small in comparison to the european routes, we concentrated on restaurants and café areas. in fact this shoot was really a floating hotel shoot concentrating on interiors and details with the focus on conveying the onboard facilities and the overall atmosphere of the ships.

interior photography for london interior designer

Here is a peek at a recent interior photography commission for London Interior Designer Lara Francis and interiors magazine Kitchens, Bedrooms & Bathrooms (KBB Magazine). The two high-end bathrooms designed by Lara were finished to a very high standard with luxurious materials and innovative features such as LED light strips and wet room style shower areas. One bathroom boasted real mother of pearl tiles, which I’m told cost 2 grand per square meter. Very special!

VW Heritage wanted a series of photographs to advertise their Remtec range of engines for air-cooled VW Beetles and Campers. The brief was to convey a sense of reliability and that garages would recommend the engines. We visited some independent VW restoration garages with an engine in tow and shot the guys standing behind it as if in the middle of installing the motor into a vehicle. We wanted the feel to be quite gritty, so out came the California sunbounce and some hard flash to give a high contrast finish.
