Earlier this year Andy was commissioned by the lovely team at Ink Creative and the AML Group to capture images for the Foresight Group, an investment management company who specialise in transformational technologies and renewable energy.
Andy was tasked with capturing images for the group’s new campaign which features on their website, social media and also billboards throughout the UK, including one currently up at London Bridge station.
Andy was asked to capture portraits of Danny Florence. Danny lost his arm to Meningitis and Septicaemia when he was just five years old and although he has grown up using his wheelchair and prosthetic legs, he has never had the use of his right arm or hand. However thanks to Foresight portfolio company, Open Bionics, Danny now has the world’s first clinically approved 3D-printed bionic arm, which was the focus of the campaign.
Andy says that it was a pleasure meeting and shooting Danny, who he felt was a true inspiration. He also said that it was ‘it was incredible to see and hear about how Dannys life has been enriched by the arm, and it was particularly moving to see him play with his 1yr old, Joshua.'‘
We asked Ivana from Ink Creative for a quote and she had this to say about Andy on set:
‘Working with Andy was a real pleasure. He takes pride in doing the research and directing the talent on set with true warmth and interest. This combined with being hands on and a problem solver brought the right energy to set. We can’t wait to work with him again!’
Amazing work Andy!
