Going back to 2009, Chris Levine kindly accepted my request to take his portrait for the Prix Pictet Prize. So I ventured of to his studio in Cambridgeshire. What seemed like hours of preparation and an intense bit of calculation, as an end result the photograph was awarded as the best portrait in 2010. This was also the first time I had worked with the artist which led to a long term collaboration.
