PHOTOGRAPHERS' AGENTS LONDON May 2006

Wyatt-Clarke have been picking up award after award for Andy Glass’s work for Stella Artois/Lowe - dubbed ‘Cinema Su Doku’ by UK newspaper the Observer. They say they haven’t put the ads on this Showcase because “there can’t be anyone left who hasn’t seen it.”  They are, however, pleased to finally be able to show Klaus Thymann’s work from the Levi's Moonbathing campaign, commissioned through BBH London and shot in Sao Paolo. He’s shooting the new season’s campaign this week, which they promise will be “even more breathtaking”.

Some other recent campaigns included here are Larry Dunstan’s street-cast portraits for Sony-Erickson / BBH, art directed by John Hegarty “himself”; Adam Hinton’s work for DDB London on the ‘Teacher Training’ campaign; Leon Steele’s arresting work for the RNIB’s anti-smoking campaign; and Nadege Meriau’s Innocent Smoothies campaign commissioned by Lowe.

Nadege Meriau is involved in another campaign at the moment with Tiger Savage at M&C Saatchi that Wyatt-Clarke tell us is exploiting her characteristic filmic, atmospheric and other-worldly style to a daring extent. Watch this space!

Agent Orange represents London-based photographers working in the advertising, music and editorial industries.

The Sharon Brandman Agency represents six photographers, each covering different areas. The agency emphasises a very collaborative approach, attention to detail and long-term client relationships.

• Richard Seymour's lifestyle concepts for Mitsubishi Motors L200 went down so well with the client that, unusually for a product launch, they used some images where the surfer was the key element rather than the car itself. Richard has also been working on a "statues in the mist” series.

ESP's photographers have been working on a range of interesting and creative projects, including forthcoming campaigns for Sky Sports, Camper as well as continued work for Gucci and Russell & Bromley. A selection of their recent work is shown here.
