Kris Kirkham
London
“Clutter smothers; Simplicity breaths”. Terri Guillemets.
"I strive to make every day unique, and one of the best ways to do that is to simplify.
Here are a range of seemingly effortless images. These can be very complex to achieve and are often the most impactful because there is nowhere to hide and no clutter to distract the eye.
Food is an integral part of our lives. It comforts and nourishes, bringing fond memories. The past two years have been challenging, and I hope these images bring something special to your everyday hustle and bustle.
My clients include Deliveroo, Waitrose Kitchen, Marks & Spencer, Nando’s, Lidl UK, Byron Burger, Weight Watchers, Subway UK, ITSU, Yo Sushi, Costa Coffee, Heathrow, Pret A Manger, EAT, Cafe Nero, Carluccio’s, COOP and many more.
Get in touch with my agent, Style Department or myself to see how we can help make the everyday special for you and your clients."
