This year my Mother, who means well, wanted to take a family photo for her Christmas cards. It seemed like a good idea, so my sister and I sat down for a little family photoshoot in September. Now. I don’t know if you’ve ever needed to get a Bouvier de Flanders and two possibly hungover […]

Recently my best friend got married. It was a day of incredible joy, love and laughter. It was also, for me, a joyous exercise in lending my designing hands to my friend’s special day. The bride had found an example of an illustrated guide to a bridal party on Pinterest, and asked if I could […]
Whilst searching through the non-internet marrow archives (okay, okay, I lost some important work files) I came across these sketches I had done ages ago. I spent an afternoon sketching in Hampstead Heath, and then scanned the pencil sketches in and added some translucent strokes of colour in Photoshop. It’s not my favourite method of […]
Some submissions for the amazing Look for Longer contest, round two! The below are all station names in London – can you guess what they are?

I’ve had a lot of free time on my hands the past 4 months. Unfortunately for Paul (who co-parents the goldfish in the flat) it means I’ve had a lot of free time to Photoshop pictures of our goldfish in improbable situations, and e-mail them to him while he’s trying to work. He might think […]
Just a quick one today – still working on new background options for twitter. The tough bit is finding the correct dimensions for the twitter background. Every website you look at has different dimensions suggested, so I’m hoping that having a nice tiled photo collage will work out. Below are some options so far. Tube […]
Living with a photographer means my photos never ever look as good as the ones he takes. There’s just no competition, so I’ve got to try to come up with other ways to make my holiday snaps interesting. I took web images of maps of some of the places that I’ve visited over the past […]
