There's nothing like a party! And this was all kinds of party to leave small children completely bewildered!

Thanks to Fiona Jackson-Downe for the production, styling and catering! Maria P for H/Mup, Marco, Kirsty, Tim, Sue, Rocco and Valentina for the house, tree and virtual Christmas. Kev, Nile and Anne-Marie for taking the day off and being great first-time models.

Wolff Olins

Through December and january I've been working on a location shoot with Wolff Olins for a telecomms company.We started with intensive model casting and location recces for the first part of the shoot in London, UK.

We used houses, commercial space and offices for the residential and office scenarios.

For the second half of the shoot we flew to Cape Town, sunny South Africa! More castings and recces, and a further series of location shoots, interiors and exteriors, including some fab houses and beaches.

Gavin Schneide Productions handled the SA side, and LPA, the winter UK side. I've included some "on the spot" outtakes until the final print images have been signed off....
