A friend hosted a party the night before the Red Bull Air Race, and his apartment in London’s Docklands had a fantastic view over the race course the next morning. You wouldn’t have seen images of aeroplanes flying low and fast over central London a few years ago…

I’d already done an athlete portrait photoshoot with Erica, but we weren’t able to shoot on the athletics grounds at the time, so we arranged another shoot. She’s a champion high-jumper, but unfortunately the equipment wasn’t available, so we settled with the red-coloured track instead.

After some stunning acro rock’n'roll photos at sunset of Barny & Jenny, we decided to take a few more photos on the St. John’s Backs.
