A solid weekend in Saudi! Some favourites from the weekend with @astonmartinf1 💚 My first podium in F1! (at Jeddah, Saudi Arabia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqEWsBKtapU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s good to be green! Love this team! 💚 Was a fun weekend! @astonmartinf1 @fernandoalo_oficial (at Jeddah, Saudi Arabia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqAkWHXSoeX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I was looking the complete opposite way for about 20 minutes and when I turned around this young Kestrel was sat on top of a fence post behind me about 5 metres away just watching me as if to say ‘I’ve been sat here for ages’ 🤦‍♂️ Luckily it stayed a bit longer to let me take some photos https://www.instagram.com/p/CoK-scHNS_W/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Fun few weeks out in Australia and the middle east to round up the end of the year with @calvinharris 🎉🕺 Getting close to almost 10 years working together. Crazy! Time flies when you’re having fun! https://www.instagram.com/p/CmHS3cJthPq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Me - Yeah, I have a bad back today. I’ve absolutely no idea why… Also me, the day before, spending hours photographing Koala bears like this 🤦‍♂️ Cheers for the pic @iambenfrancis (at Gold Coast, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmFBnWuN5SW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Genuinely so happy to find these Koalas in the wild. I’ve tried to find Koalas on previous visits to Australia, but never managed to find any successfully. So I was very happy when I spotted these two! 🐨 (at Gold Coast, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClvXgGOy-P-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

During the last race weekend in Abu Dhabi I was asked to take a quick portrait of @sebastianvettel for the promo artwork for Sebastian Vettel - For One Last Time video which is now out on the @astonmartinf1 youtube account. (Go watch it, it’s great!) I knew I wouldn’t have much time to shoot Seb as his weekend was jam packed. So I had to plan something super quick. I was asked what sort of shot I thought I should take for it and immediately I knew what I wanted to take. One of my inspirations in F1 photography is @vladimirrys and his shot of Seb (second photo) is such an iconic photo of a young Seb taken years ago. I wanted to take an updated version of it as I thought it would fit perfectly for the cover. I also think it’s really cool seeing them side by side! Thank you for the inspiration Vlad!

I have always wanted to see Koalas in the wild. I’ve been to Australia a few times before but never managed to see any in the wild. Until this morning. A benefit to jet lag kicking my arse on this trip meant I headed out early for a hike and actually ended up seeing 5 Koalas over the course of a few hours, including this mum and her young baby. A very cool morning, feel very lucky! 🐨 (at Gold Coast, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CliPCDMyLI5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The final lap helmet. Nice to be next to my younger brother Eoin on it for @sebastianvettel’s final race in F1. Fun fact, in the photo of Eoin, he’s wearing one of Sebs actual race suits from a prep day in the studio, I needed someone to wear the race suit to sort the lighting out so it was good for when Seb got there the day after. As Eoin was there and helping me out and the same height as Seb, he got to spend the whole day wearing Sebs full F1 suit 🤣 (at Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClHVb0aBDUs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Realised I haven’t posted much from the past few races. Here’s some favourites from Singapore a few weeks ago @astonmartinf1 @sebastianvettel @lance_stroll (at Singapore Formula 1 Marina Bay Circuit) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkLuv4eNdDe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
