Some images from a shoot I did earlier this month with Sir Salman Rushdie, his wife the photographer and poet (Rachel) Eliza Griffiths and documentary-filmmaker Alex Gibney, who’s film ‘Knife: The Attempted Murder of Salman Rushdie’, is released in the UK on 30th September.

What fun it was shooting @trewleyprecious for today’s @guardian G2 piece by @emine_saner . It was so lovely to meet her, her mummy and puss puss, and to feel thoroughly welcomed into their home in Clacton-on-Sea ☀️

Here’s a roundup of my week working with @weareinvictusgames earlier this month during a visit to the UK by the Duke of Sussex, marking one year to go until the Invictus Games Birmingham 2027 @birmingham_2027 . Following a trip to Ukraine together last year, it was great to work alongside Prince Harry again, as he toured the country and met with former competitors, veterans, dignitaries, hospital and rehabilitation centre staff. He also had a guest appearance on the Joe Marler podcast, before taking part in a One-year-to go event at the NEC centre in Birmingham, where he tested his skills at Pickleball, Laser Run and Wheelchair Rugby.

I waited as Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Pippa Crerar and @lukeharding1968 shared thanks and goodbyes once our @guardianpol interview had drawn to a close, before asking if the Ukrainian President would ‘care to join me into the bedroom for a portrait please?’ My assistant @me.floraluna had prepared a couple of lights, tripod, camera and a few lenses (I only used the 50 in the end). He had to dash off to see the King so there was no time for indecision. I’d managed to pop back and fire off 6 light-test shots (‘yep - that’ll do!’) all whilst filming the interview in the other room. I took 62 portraits in all but it was number 50 that was ‘the one’. I knew it almost straight away through the lens, which is quite rare (for me). I coaxed his hands up onto his undersized lapels, turned his head slightly, lowered it a bit, locked his gaze and 📸!

I interviewed Volodymyr Zelenskyy today in London with my Guardian colleague Pippa Crerar. He told us Ukraine's position on the battlefield is the strongest it's been for two-and-a half years. And that Russia is increasingly isolated after Hungary, Moldova and now Armenia rejected pro-Russian politicians. Zelenskyy was cheerful, I thought - with good reason. Recent Ukrainian drone strikes have crippled Crimea and a key supply route in occupied southern Ukraine. Meanwhile, Russia is losing 30-35,000 soldiers a month, he says, killed and wounded. After our conversation, Ukraine's president went to see King Charles at Buckingham Palace. They have a "very good relationship", Zelenskyy said, adding that he hopes that British monarch will come to Kyiv. Photograph by @davidlevene

“The giant of stage and screen is 87 and still hates looking in the mirror. At home with his husband, he talks about weeping, sleeping with Daniel Craig, terrifying directors and the joys of white wine and a nap”
Northeast London compatriot Derek Del-boy Jacobi and his husband Richard, the most welcoming and hospitable of hosts to @shattenstone , @me.floraluna and I, for a piece in @guardian today…

I got a few minutes with @floholzinger - Florentina Holzinger - at the end of a long day for us both during pre-previews at Venice Biennale earlier this month, although Florentina’s day had been way more brutal than mine. I’d been shooting artworks across the city, carrying too much kit as usual. Florentina and her co-performers at the Austria pavilion had been hoisted up into the air as a human bell clappers, ridden doughnuts on a jet ski and stood for hours in a tank full of piss, all whilst naked and exposed to the elements. By the time she turned up for her portrait, she was wrapped in a thick thermal coat, chilled to the bone. The light of the Venetian dusk soft and perfect, as she approached the water’s edge.

I photographed David Attenborough when he turned 90 back in 2016 as part of a little push for his new show about the discovery of the world’s largest-known dinosaur. My dear friend and @guardian picture editor at the time @ranjitdhaliwal had the bright idea to photograph David holding a toy dinosaur. So I pinched a bag of soft dinosaurs from a local child to take to the shoot. 10 minutes in and David was on good form and seemed to be enjoying himself, so I pulled out a dinosaur and handed it to him. He looked at the dinosaur, then he looked at me, then back to the dinosaur. Nervous about which way this was going to go, I quickly handed him another dinosaur, and then another one, and another one… Happy 100th birthday David (and thanks for the great idea Ranj)!
