Ironically we recently chose to shoot the 08/09 edition of ‘The Little Book of Silver Cross’ in South Africa, for its guaranteed good weather.

 

 

When the weather cleared up though, the shoot became a joy. We basically just documented a real family having a Great British day out. But in Cape Town.

 

 

 

What was also ironic was that we ended up shooting at a beach called llandudno, which was what the beach was called that we shot at last year in Wales, with the lovely Antony Crook.

 

 

We can’t show you the shots just yet, as we’ve only shown the client a few, but we’d just like to give a big thanks to the team. Jane for her hard work behind the lens (hope the sunburn’s cleared up). John for his great assistance, exquisite animal noises and all-round entertainment. Myles for his patience, great breakfasts, and for constantly monitoring my incredibly pale skin. Sue (and her daughter Ella) and everyone else at Matrix Productions. And finally, our fantastic family - Clyde, Sally, Jake and Lily who are now the proud owners of both a Silver Cross 3D Pram System and an Explorer Sport car seat.

 

 

Actually, here’s one shot for you. Jake has been closely studying the work of Heston Blumenthal, and tells us that sporting orange goggles whilst eating a cheese sandwich by the seaside makes it taste loads better.

 

 

We’ll upload more pics when we can - and keep your eyes peeled for the book, it’ll be hitting the shops sometime in April.
