Marks and Spencer Limited Collection

More behind the scenes... I was also lucky enough to work on the launch for the mens  AW Limited range for Marks and Spencer. The launch took place at Somerset House in the hidden depths of the Lightwells and Deadhouse. The architecture here was somewhat unsual but a great space for the lauch.

I have just finished shooting the Not On the High Street Winter Catalogue with Andrew Boyd and his lovely assistant Jane. Here are a few behind the scenes shots, but you will have to wait a few weeks to see the results.
