Kirlian Photography

We thought you’d like to have a sneak peek at this shot before it goes live tomorrow on our Behance Account.

The series was done using traditional Kirlian Photography techniques, where the electrical ‘aura’ of a charged item is recorded on a piece of film (remember film, and happy trips to the lab and excitement when it all came out!), placed on a discharge plate. Photoshop was not involved in the production of this series; they are all straight scans. The intensity of the ‘aura’ can be controlled and changed on the amplitude and wave form which is put through the object, which will also have the by-product of altering the colours, though not in an entirely predictable way!

Bulmers

Jonathan shot the packaging for Bulmers limited edition ‘Crisp Blend’ cider. We love shooting drinks, and the colder and more refreshing the better. These shots make us all want to dive into a bottle of Bulmers, so hopefully Jonathan did the product proud.

The Guardian – Wieden & Kennedy

Jonathan ‘literally’ shot this image for The Guardian’s ‘Reading the Riots’ campaign for Wieden & Kennedy London. It was a great project to work on, which involved a whole day of shooting glass with an air rifle. We love the multi-coloured lighting used to emphasise the glass, which was all done in camera to tie in with the Guardian’s brand palette.

We worked with the talented Gareth Pritchard for the retouching to produce ‘Broken Britain’, and the model makers at Andy Knight’s for their skilled glasswork.

Westfield Paint Shoot

Jonathan has just shot the latest ads for the re-opening of Westfield in Guildford – The Friary. It was great to mix Jonathan’s liquid expertise with his people work. Sadly we can’t say ‘no clothing was harmed in the making of these advertisements’.

Agency: Chaos

Models: Ciara and Fabiana at Profile and Raf Cross at Models 1

SABMiller – Best Annual Report

We’ve just heard that the SABMiller Annual report, for which Jonathan shot the cover and main photographs, has won a CorpComms award for the Best Annual Report! The images were close-ups on aspects of various key brands.

Below is what the judges said:

“Strong colourful visuals,’capturing the moment of anticipation – just before the delight and enjoyment of consumption’, brought the sections to life. ‘This was a very clear and engaging annual report’.”

It was a great pleasure working with Further on this project and a prestigious award is a great bonus.

Boursin

We are particularly proud of this elegant ad created for Y&R Paris. The ad ran with the headline ‘Bousculez vos sens’ (Shake up your senses), and features flying ingredients that go into making the unique flavour of Boursin.

Creatives: Agathe Rattel and Arnaud Marullaz

Campo Viejo

As soon as Jonathan saw the visual for this Campo Viejo campaign, he knew we could create something exciting and fun. With a nod to the Spanish flamenco feel, we poured and splashed wine to create a variety of flowing shapes.

Cadbury’s Dairy Milk

We where honoured to photograph the iconic ‘glass and a half’ image for Cadbury’s Ireland along with an array of classic Dairy Milk chocolate shots. The girls found it tough having so much chocolate in the studio, but we survived!
