What an incredible year. As it draws to a close, I have finally set aside some time to portray some insight from behind the lens, showing a bit more about what makes me tick in my work, and the clients and partners I work with.

Over the last 12 months I’ve shot advertising campaigns for Oakley, Shimano and Adidas (to name a few), worked with editorial clients such as Rouleur, Ride Journal and Soigneur and helped my corporate clients such as PwC to develop their global brand identity with shoots Italy, Spain, France and Morocco. On top of this, I’ve even found time for personal work!

It is this personal photography which is shaping up to be the most exciting, and time consuming project as things are coming together rather quickly now on my ‘mountains project’ – a long term personal ambition to release a book showcasing some of the most iconic cycling mountain passes in Europe.

In the posts to come I’ll be covering projects both past and present, shining a light on some of the partners and suppliers I work with and also touching on what lies ahead. I’ll aim to keep it short and sweet, and to let the images do the talking.

Thanks, M
