Cameron Mackintosh's spectacular touring production of Oliver! opens this month in Cardiff. Once more I had a great day photographing new cast members at the studio. Samantha Barks is the new Nancy and Iain Fletcher will be scaring the children as Bill Sikes. Neil Morrissey and Brian Conley play Fagin at selected venues.

Helen of the Antarctic

Blue Peter's daring presenter Helen Skelton is about to embark on a gruelling 500 mile trip across Antartica  to reach the South Pole for Sport Relief 2012. I shot this publicity shot just after she had completed her training in Iceland. She's s really lovely person and an inspiration to so many young people.
At this shoot I realised a lifetime ambition. Helen presented me with my very own Blue Peter badge! I shall treaure it always. To find out more about Helen's challenge and how you can support this great cause please click here.
