Day Of Judgement - Daily Telegraph

A few months ago I was shooting in New York’s financial district on what was THE hottest day of the year. Needless to say, I was shooting fall fashion - coats, jackets and all. The story for the shoot was based around a fictitious A-list celebrity going in and out of court for a high profile case. Photographer Patric Shaw cast the lawyer, legal aid, paparazzi and police officer perfectly, but once we started shooting we found that what we needed was a second paparazzi. I knew just the man to call! My husband James came down to meet us and is the second paparazzo hand in half the pictures.

Just after lunch the actress playing the police lady said she had to go do another job, so we were left without a officer. James came to the rescue again, this time donning the uniform to act as my police escort in half the pictures. In one picture you’ll see James breaking up a brewing altercation between myself and the paparazzi - I wish you could see the outtakes from this series of pictures - quite hilarious. At one point I was fully on James’ back, trying to get at the paparazzi man.

This is now James’ second shoot with me. You might remember he shot with Patrick Demarchelier and I for an American Vogue story. Quite the little portfolio he is working up!
