Marina de Van is a very interesting French film director, screenwriter, novelist and actor. She was a great subject to shoot, making it a challenge to pick just one image - I did eventually, and it’s in the “Artists” gallery.
Her new site has just been launched, and offers acting coaching and hypnosis in Paris.
Hugh O’Conor, photographed in my kitchen.
Hugh O’Conor is a quintuple threat. As well as being one of the best actors of his generation, he’s an extravagantly talented director, screenwriter and photographer, and he’s the nicest man in the Irish film industry. He defies categorisation, which makes it all the more difficult to decide which gallery on the site to put his portrait into…
(You can see the gallery he went into here.)
I had a great time photographing actor/singer/ budding photographer Nicky Kavanagh, even when she turned it back onto me.
The very lovely actor and singer Angel Hannigan. She knew my mother from Nick's coffee shop in Ranelagh, and sang an absolutely beautiful version of Nick Cave's "Into My Arms" at the funeral.
