Late at night, when everyone's tucked up in bed and all the world's fast asleep...
...JASON from SLEAFORD MODS tiptoes out of the house to rehearse in his car. Here’s "SECOND".
Turn up the volume! It’s POWERFUL STUFF!
Chris Floyd - Sleaford Mods - Tweet Tweet Tweet!
In November 2019, JASON WILLIAMSON and ANDREW FEARN of SLEAFORD MODS asked CHRIS FLOYD to make a film about their biggest gig to date at Hammersmith Apollo (or Odeon, depending on when you came of gig-going age).
In these times it feels rather surreal to see crowds of people in such close proximity to each other, which makes the footage and the performance all the more compelling viewing...
Here's the footage of the band performing 'TWEET TWEET TWEET'!
Phil Fisk - Normal People / Observer
PHIL FISK squeezed in this shoot with DAISY EDGAR JONES and PAUL MESCAL for the OBSERVER just before lockdown.
The stars of the BBC adaptation of SALLY ROONEY's 'NORMAL PEOPLE' have had us glued to our screens during these days of sequestration. Compelling chemistry, perfectly curated soundtrack, Marianne's impeccable wardrobe and plentiful opportunities for perusing Connell's chain (which even has its own instagram account with over 100k followers)!
"All I can say is that Daisy and Paul have a pure chemistry, unforced and beautiful. At times I found myself wishing I was that age again, such was their energy on shoot..." Phil Fisk

Chris Floyd - Stylist / Shauna Coxsey
HANGING IN THERE...
CHRIS FLOYD photographs OLYMPIC climbing hopeful SHAUNA COXSEY for the 500th issue of STYLIST MAGAZINE.
"A few weeks ago I travelled up to Sheffield on a freezing cold morning to spend the day inside a building made entirely of chipboard and leftover bits of furniture adornment from the Memphis Milano design movement. Inside we were thrilled by the sight of Shauna Coxsey, in the finest SS20 fashions, as she clambered and scampered over every surface of the chipboard palace in this shoot for the 500th issue of Stylist Magazine."
Styling by Helen Atkin.
Chris Floyd - Idler / Damien Hirst

Joseph Ford - The Making of "Paperboy"!
"PaperBoy" was over 2 years in development. His suit took over a year to create using many rolls of paper, glue and tape (as well as a good deal of blood sweat and tears!). The shoot took place over 2 days on location in Brighton with locals stopping for selfies on the beach with the extraordinary blue Paperboy!
Our amazingly calm and patient model Sid, spent 2 days sealed inside his paper suit, unable to hear (or see properly) through the close-fitting mask. At one point almost taking a wrong turn into the sea which would have been disastrous!
Huge thanks to Jaina Minton, Laura Walters, Amelia Ellison, Sid Hanson-Kahn, Woody Cook, Lucas Bonacorso, Jack Cox, George Laycock, Georgia Meinert, Poppy Gooch, Jonny, James Hole, Captain Seadogs Barber Shop and to Fatboy Slim for kindly allowing use of his music for the soundtrack.
Take a look behind the scenes at "the making of PAPERBOY"...
Joseph Ford - Schön Magazine / Paperboy - FILM
A breath-taking new commission by JOSEPH FORD for SCHÖN MAGAZINE.
Exploring the challenges of teen life, Paperboy is a metaphor for being a little bit different.
The amazing Jaina Minton dedicated an unreasonable amount of her time (blood, sweat and tears!) to creating Paperboy’s suit. Huge shout out to Sid who managed to keep calm inside the Paperboy suit for two days!
