My job title is... Saviour of the agency… Or Imaging department

And that basically means... I look after all the images, videos, polaroids etc for the models

I studied... History

I got to where I am now by... Sheer hard work and a lot of luck!

When I was growing I wanted to be... Firefighter or photographer

My typical working day consists of... Working non-stop with beautiful people. The models are very pretty too.

The best perk of my job is... Getting to shoot some of the most beautiful people in the world.

The highlight of my career was... So many, getting published last year was amazing.

I couldn’t do my job without... My gorgeous new Z1 computer or Marco Majocchi

I love working with models because... One should be surrounded by beautiful people

The model I’ll be watching in 2013 has to be... Marco Majocchi, watch out for his Mothercare campaign!

When I’m not busy working, I like to... Roll around in a cage with big sweaty men

I am at my happiest wearing... My gi

The most treasured piece in my wardrobe is... Vintage velvet blazer

My autobiography would be called... I thought you were taller: The Benn Healy Story

My hottest hang-outs in London are... The cage at Gymbox Bank

My guilty pleasure is... Ice cream

The most valuable lesson that my job has taught me is... Work hard and never give up

My biggest challenge for 2013 is... Get published more.
