London-based food and drink photographer and director Karen Thomas recently moved into a brand new, 1300 sq. ft. studio in Elephant and Castle - and she hasn't stopped since.

Most recently, she was thrilled to be part of the new M&S campaign doing what she does best - bringing a beautifully natural and foodie aspect to the work. Whether it's pouring a dash of tonic into a delicious G&T, creating the perfect pizza cheese pull or showing off the frankly outrageous Big Daddy burger that feeds four people, it's obvious Karen is in her element and loves every moment.

Along with her regular stills campaigns for Costa, Karen has recently been directing some new moving image work, due out in September.

Her other recent projects have included more directing work for McDonald's, Vue Cinema and Nestlé, and she is about to start the Costa Christmas campaign.

For commissions, Karen can always be contacted through her agent Horton-Stephens (TVC commissions through her production company, Snapper).
