Chris Floyd X Kellie French - And Begin

Flock are delighted to share new work from our recent commission for midlife skincare brand AND BEGIN featuring photography by both CHRIS FLOYD and KELLIE FRENCH 🙌✨.

The 2 photographers collaborated to create a body of imagery articulating the spirit and ethos of the brand, including portrait photography of brand 'champions’ by CHRIS; with complementary still life photography of product and ingredients by KELLIE.

With set design by the wonderful OLIVIA CLIFFORD, styling by the amazing SASHA BARRIE, and art direction by our lovely KELLIE FRENCH, we were able to bring continuity of colour palette, tone and texture, ensuring a complementary look and feel throughout the images.

Huge thanks to And Begin for this lovely commission, to all our awesome team including our fabulous real models, for a wonderful shoot in every respect.

A handful of Chris’s beautiful portraits are featured below.
