"It was a challenging project because I had to represent people over 60 years old while making them glamorous and attractive," says Thomas. "My style tends to simplify shapes so it’s always very challenging to represent older people. But eventually I think I found the right balance in these pictures."

Often narrative, Thomas's work is characterised by a clever use of light, bold compositions and a dose of mystery. His client list includes, among others, Google, The New York Times, TFL, Liberty, Penguin, English National Opera and The New Yorker. Discover more: thomasdanthony.com.
