Spotted: Pete’s new Cathay Pacific campaign

Pete’s new campaign for Cathay Pacific has been spotted in Hong Kong. Look at the size of that bus stop poster! Huge. 

Pete Seaward out and about as usual.

Pete’s been having a “hard day in the office” shooting AYANA’s 2012 campaign for their hotel and spa in Bali. Little bit jealous of the weather.

Nice hat:

 

Sneaky preview:

We are also pleased to announce that Pete’s talk in Jakarta went really well without a hitch! Thanks to all the sponsors and everyone that came, looks like a sold out show!

Pete’s journey to Moscow for the Lonely Planet Magazine

Pete has just finished shooting a feature for the BBC’s Lonely Planet magazine in Moscow. He has been working with Marcel Theroux who is writing a story about the nostalgic/retro side of the Russian capital’s life.


“Plenty of graphic nostalgia here. You just have to walk miles to find it or ride the amazing museum style Metro system. Then just keep an eye out to check you are not being watched”. Says Pete.



Spiros shoots Hogwarts bad guy Tom Felton aka Draco Malfoy

Spiros shot this beautiful portrait of Tom Felton for Times Magazine recently. The calm nature of the colour palette and mood in the image shows Harry Potter’s nemesis in a different, more mature light. Lovely.
