Luther is the police detective at the end of his sanity. Alice is the psychopathic, smart & cool killer. They both attract and repulse each other. They are entangled, same yet different, a duel, intellectual joust, spark, game…
(excerpt from my stills brief)

Luther is a gritty crime drama for BBC One starring Idris Elba.

I managed the unit, portrait and key art photography as a coherant image-led publicity campaign for BBC Worldwide (now Studios), working alongside colleagues in BBC Creative.

Unit and cast portrait photography was used extensively in the press and online.
The skyline shots of Luther were actually shot on the rooftop of a tower block in the city of London. No photoshop backplates here!
