A Culinary Odyssey, 

An amazing event and the result of a collaboration between Bompas and Parr and Rhea Theirstein. Had an amazing time helping out on the set and snapping pictures! 

Reading is everything. Reading makes me feel like I’ve accomplished something, learned something, become a better person. Reading makes me smarter. Reading gives me something to talk about later on. Reading is the unbelievably healthy way my attention deficit disorder medicates itself. Reading is escape, and the opposite of escape; it’s a way to make contact with reality after a day of making things up, and it’s a way of making contact with someone else’s imagination after a day that’s all too real. Reading is grist. Reading is bliss

Outdoor Kitchen Shoot France

Whilst away with my family I used the beautiful woodland surrounding to explore the relationships between people and place the images, the shoot became more like a lived installation with us spending an entire day drinking tea and eating cheese and playing cards in the woods.
