Star Wars

29th October 2020

Flashback to 2006, when I dragged felicity into the muddy reeds, and we marvelled at her new Steve Madden boots. A stripped back shoot is always my preference. An analogue camera overcast skies, and a walk with the helping hands of a friend who calmly navigates a reflector in a gale.

Tomorrow, the NPG opens a Star Wars show in central London featuring Felicity’s image. I’ve always wondered how I would reshoot this image. Perhaps, something inside too with some interesting light showing both softness, and strength. One thing is for sure, I would definitely experiment more with the large format as it’s currently gathering dust.

Here s a few that made the edit but not the wall..oao x
