benedict cumberbatch


I was commissioned to photograph the awesome actor Benedict Cumberbatch by The Guardian UK last Sunday.  It was the cover story for their Weekend magazine.

Being a massive fan of his portrayals of Sherlock and Khan, it was amazing to have him in front of my camera.  Even though I only had 10 minutes with him, I was able to shoot him in a way I didn't think I would.

The interview is an interesting read as well, and can be found here.



Here's what it looked like in print (thanks to my now European friend Stuart for snapping these for me).
