Karen Thomas is a London-based food and still life photographer. She is known for the welcoming atmosphere of her big and beautiful loft studio in Hoxton, where she shoots both daylight and flash for a wide range of high-end clients. From editorial to advertising, Karen has worked for some of the biggest names in food during her 14-year career.

Halloween is nearly upon us and Karen recently shot a party feature for Sainsbury's Magazine and also a delicious pumpkin feature. Karen's Tastes Of The World photos can currently be seen around town in the windows of McDonald's and soon Marks and Spencer will be flooded with Karen's Christmas posters.

Karen has just finished working on store posters for Waitrose, a feature with Sam Harris, chef-patron of Zucca, and is now looking forward to working on a feature with Marcus Wareing.
