Out of the Office

I'll be traveling in South America for the next few weeks and won't be updating my blog until I'm back in the UK. In the meantime here's a picture from Tierra del Fuego.

Robert Lawrence MC

This portrait of Robert Lawrence is the first image I've made towards a body of work that will focus on British and Argentinian veterans of the Falkland-Malvinas conflict.

For an action fought on Mount Tumbledown, Lawrence - then a Lieutenant in the Scots Guards - was awarded the Military Cross. He was seriously wounded in the final hours of the conflict and his story dramatised in the 1988 film Tumbledown.

Lawrence is now the manager and co-founder of Global Adventure Plus, an organisation that aims to help physically and mentally injured ex-service personnel.

Portrait: Iain MacDonald

A portrait of film and television director Iain MacDonald from a shoot earlier today.
