A bit more competitive than a kickabout actually, at Street League’s annual 5-a-side fundraising tournament last week. 20 teams from the banks and financial organisations in Canary Wharf competed in a knockout competiton for kudos and the chance to have the trophy presented to them by surprise guest and Arsenal legend Lee Dixon. Great to meet him and hear stories from the glory days… :) High intensity work shooting all the matches, team shots and set-ups required, all under challenging sports centre lighting.

A nice commission to come back to in my hometown, - go take some pictures of London. Buildings, landmarks and abstracts. Struck by how much construction work is going on everywhere and how much the Southbank has changed. More years than I care to remember ago I used to skate down there, it was a wednesday night thing. Thankfully the skatepark has been saved. Here’s a selection from the day

Early 2014 saw me spend some time in Kenya, volunteering at The Children’s Village, an orphanage in Naivasha, North West of Nairobi. As well building a photography library, adding content to their website and facebook page, I helped out with day to day operations and spent as much time as possible with the children, whether that was taking them running (or rather they took me!), time in the library, working the shamba (vegetable patch), or just hanging out having fun. A really rewarding experience, I can’t wait to go back and see how they’re getting on as they grow up. Here’s a few pics of the children at work and play
