Vic Singh worked at my fathers John Cole's Studio Five in the early 1960's. "Studio Five" "Photography for Advertising" was located in Shepherd Market Mayfair and ran between 1956-1969

More information on John Cole and Studio Five here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Cole_(photographer)

A note from Vic's of his time at the Studio :

I worked in one of the studios or outside in Shepard Market, weather permitting. Lunchtime was usually spent in a cafe in the Market and in the evening with a friend who lived next to the studio called George Hastings, Dudley Moore would arrive and play the piano with George on the double base. Dudley had a jazz group in the early 60’s called The Dudley Moore Trio who played in a West End jazz club.

Studio Five became a popular and famous London studio at that time. With the young photographers “doing their thing” seeing in the birth of the “Swinging 60’s” a mix of fashion, music and industry.
