Lou & Michael




These blogs are starting to get too preditable, but what a pleasure to photograph Michael Grade at ITV for Marketing, especially since I enjoyed photographing his uncle back in 1994 for the Radio Times.

Alistair Campbell re-visited


It's been a decade and a half since I photographed Alistair Campbell for then the Sunday Telegraph and a more accommodating subject you couldn't find.

Back then he met me leaning on the gate to the House of Lords and breezed me into gardens to get a shot with Parliament in the background.

Well, a lot has happened in Alistair's life since 1993, and I was intrigued to see if the power had changed the man.
Not at all. Still charming and easy. I wonder if the Editors would agree.

By the way, that is Maradona's signature on both boots and sleeve of his beloved Burnley shirt.
