About this listen
His book, The Red Arrows, covers the 40th display season of Britain's Royal Air Force aerobatic team, the Red Arrows. Following Red Arrows came four commissioned books: 'The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work' (Hamish Hamilton); 'A Week at the Airport: A Heathrow Diary' (Profile); 'Religion for Atheists' (Hamish Hamilton), all with Alain de Botton; and 'Risk Wise: Nine Everyday Adventures' by Polly Morland (Profile).
Most recently, his documentary and landscape interpretations offered a visual narrative for another collaboration with Polly Morland in 'A Fortunate Woman: A Country Doctor's Story' (Picador), shortlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize.
His early years were spent working in aviation before he studied documentary photography at Newport under Magnum's David Hurn, then freelancing for the Observer newspaper before being represented by the Katz/IPG agency.
Nowadays, he works independently and on a smaller scale, pursuing personal projects that tell tales on topical or conceptual themes while aspiring to be unconventional and incongruous. As well as more recent digital work, his extensive archive of scanned film images from the mid-80s to early 2000s is online here at Photoshelter, with Getty Images (via 'In Pictures') and Alamy.
Bylines include: The Guardian; The Observer; The Sunday Times; Sunday Express Magazine; Financial Times; The Times of London; The Spectator;
TLS; National Geographic; The New Statesman; Huffpost; Tatler; MSN; Bloomberg; Unherd; LIFE Magazine; Time Magazine; Newsweek; Der Spiegel;
Stern; GEO; L'Espresso; Le Figaro Magazine, etc., plus daily worldwide usage via Getty Images.
