Phil Fisk - Top 30 Talent / Observer
Phil Fisk recently photographed some amazing creative and culinary talent for Observer Food Monthly’s “Food Favourites for 2023”…
Featured here are beautiful portraits of baker Helen Evans and knife-maker Holly Loftus.
Holly has a foundry in Deptford. Her knives are things of great beauty; inspired by the principles of heirloom design and completely hand made using ancient Japanese techniques with handles made from native timbers sourced from family run sawmills.
Helen has just opened her first bakery, (a one woman operation), Eric’s in East Dulwich, having previously worked at the much-celebrated bakery Flor in Borough Market. 🌾 🥖 🙌
Phil Fisk - Allotment Eccentrics / The Alchemist
Delighted to share the 3rd and final part of Phil Fisk's beautifully crafted, atmospheric and other-worldly 'Allotment Eccentrics' series, created in collaboration with super-talented stylist Vic Twyman.
Here Phil turns his lens on potting shed alchemist Pedro (who insists his English friends pronounce it “Peyo”).
His story is told below...
“Peyo has always hankered for a simple life. Originally from the Basque region of Spain but with French ancestry he has always felt like a nomad and travelled the world after university, working in bars and restaurants, gradually losing any motivation to pursue the product design he had studied for. In 2008 he was knocked off his motor bike, sustaining severe concussion and a lengthy time in hospital. A generous insurance payment bought him a period of reflection and he applied for an allotment, initially to stretch out the money and start living off the land but its appeal grew like his plants and quickly enveloped him. These new cultivation skills and constant reading inspired him to investigate the world of herbal medicine and to start making his own remedies. His back and arms still ache but his natural medicines and gentle digging are working to alleviate it. He thinks of himself as an alchemist although has no desire to create gold, just a simple ambition to use the natural properties of minerals and herbs to create change in himself and those around him.”

Kellie French - Sali Hughes / Guardian
Kellie’s work has focussed on beauty for the last few months, creating some stunning content for Sali Hughes’ iconic weekly beauty column in the Guardian.
The picture editors wanted her to devise a series of images with a modern, conceptual and humorous taken on beauty photography. The brief gave Kellie lots of freedom with her ideas and executions, and we absolutely love the results!
The images focus on a range of concepts… from L to R…
wavy hair / strong hair / saving money with a beauty subscription / glass highlighters / Christmas fragrances.
Huge thanks to all the Guardian team and to Sarah Cherry for the amazing hair & makeup. ❤️💥🔥

Frankie Turner - Paperville
FRANKIE TURNER collaborates with designer / paper-craft pro MEL EDWARDS and fabulous food stylist MAUD EDEN on this amazing personal project “PAPERVILLE” exploring the wonderful world of “DUCK ARCHITECTURE” (a term coined by architects Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown).
Inspired by the kitschy roadside buildings you may have seen in photos of 1920’s/ 30’s America (giant coffee pots, ice cream tubs or hot dog stands that look like supersized versions of the items they’re selling), however this time we’ve gone miniature!
Packed with puns, paper and processed food, Paperville took around 100 hours to create and is made mostly of food and paper with some amazing details... (including mini bin bags cut from real ones, Japanese lanterns fashioned from notice board pins and yellow gobstoppers used to illuminate the zebra crossing!)
Absolutely love this project!! and you can read more about it in this lovely feature on CreativeBoom 💕
Lots of delightful details 🔎 ✨
