Beefeaters
Posted on June 22, 2007 - Filed Under Nigel Barker Today
Well my friends at GQ asked me to shoot an advertorial for Beefeater Gin and
wandered if I mind being the subject too…. For those who don’t know an
advertorial is a cross between advertising and editorial. Essentially the client (
BeefEater) gets an Ad in GQ for a lot less than an actual advertizing and GQ
and hopefully the photographer get to shoot something that works for the
magazine and the client. Its a sort of you scratch my back I’ll scratch yours
sought of thing.
Anyhow I got to shoot Jamie Oliver ( The Naked Chef) and Duncan Quinn
(Bespoke suit maker) and Spencer Hart. And of course me! Well we just shot it
again and the usual suspects were there plus Keanan Duffty who is a rock and
roll designer and musician too. You can see the stories on my website
www.studionb.com under portraits.
The shot of me with Jack ( my son) never actually ran as you cant have a child
in an alcohol ad but I liked it so…….
