About

Nick shoots people. In landscapes, homes - modest and palatial, private places, schools, hospices and hospitals.

He has a fascination with faces, the smooth unlined faces of children and the lined faces of their Grandparents.

The infinite colours of skin, hair and eyes.

Relationships, between friends, between families, between strangers, models on a shoot, are his obsession.

The body language, the mime that happens in a still image is key to telling the story.

He uses light and it’s interplay with form and texture to give the picture depth and colour.

He loves the sunlight of summer, the sparkling on water, vivid green saturation through leaves and grass.

Behind all this , quietly in the background, is the preparation, the organization, the post-production and his reputation.

He is now using these same fascinations in his moving images.

He grew up in Zambia and South Africa and has a BA in Graphic Design from Central St Martins College, London.

England Netball

DateMonday, October 10, 2011 at 10:10AM

A recent shoot for England Netball has just gone "live" on the web and a huge campaign throughout UK schools to promote the game of Netball at all levels.

Working with Lindsay at Goodideer, we shot at  Studio 202, Digbeth, Birmingham and Park Royal, London.

Using streetcast girls of all ages, over 40 girls were shot against various colour backgrounds to represent age ranges and design themes.

Tech assist by Rob Vanderplank, Hair and Make up Katy Smart, Styling Cheryl Bostock.

Thanks to all the girls, their parents and all the support admin who made it all so memorable!



 

All gone mad, last shot of the day!
