‘The Traveller’s Return’ editorial, photographed by Adrian Briscoe and styled by Ali Brown. ‘Rich colours and intricate patterns from all over the world create decorative schemes that evoke memories and itchy feet.’

Michael Woolley travelled to New York to shoot this Slim Aarons inspired editorial for Martha Stewart’s Wedding Magazine. The 10 page story appeared in their special travel issue.

We think that Matt Bird’s latest Olympic themed series is a great way to kick-start our 2012 blogs. These energetic shots were taken of triple jumper; Nathan Douglas who is in training for team GB. We girls don’t know much about triple jumping, but he looks pretty good to us!

Instead of sending a paper Christmas card we have made donations instead to Cancer Research, Too Many Women at Breakthrough Breast Cancer, Samaritan’s purse and The Alzheimer’s Society.

We hope you have a very merry Christmas and wish you all the very best for 2012.

Over the holiday period our offices will close at 5pm on Tuesday 20 Dec 2011 and we reopen on Wednesday 4 Jan 2012.
