2025! WTF just happened? Talk about shat on by Labour and potentially shoveled up by Reform. During this mess 3 projects I shot last year were released, Warfare, The Long Walk and Ballerina. My work was featured prominently and even though the images were created months prior, the release campaigns take up more of my grey matter than you would imagine. I did however have to keep a bit in the tank to begin preparations for The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping and having photographed the entire franchise, it’s more of a homecoming for me but with the exciting addition of a new cast of max factors. The further into the world of Panem we get the more it becomes a dystopian present rather than a dystopian future...
With that in mind, the added bonus to the end of 2025 is my exhibition at The Chair, Hay-On-Wye, where I’ll be displaying images from Withnail and I as well as The Shining, Indiana Jones and Harry Potter. I’ll be in attendance during the week (hopefully mostly sober) to personalise any images and bore you with stories which you can’t repeat. And whilst we are at if you are adding to your collection or looking for a Christmas gift, this is probably as good a time as ever to give you all the exciting news that this years Christmas 10 x 8” is ‘Our Heroes Relax’ which has proved over the years to be one of the most popular.
There has never been a better time to start drinking, so here is to 2026.
