I always love a challenge and shooting the new Irish craft gin, Blood Monkey, was a nice one. The beautifully designed black bottle was to be shot on a black background. We spent a productive day in my Dublin studio, photographing the Blood Monkey bottle and some gin based cocktails. So it is great to see one of the shots gracing the back cover page of the very cool ‘Totally Dublin’ magazine in an ad campaign that flirts with unspoken expletives. Very clever. As a newcomer to gin drinking - I loved the taste of this Irish malt gin. And by the way - as far as I recall there were no angry expletives expressed or otherwise during the making of these photographs.
