CHRIS FLOYD shot these fabulous portraits of singer/songwriter and guitarist RICHARD HAWLEY for the new issue of THE IDLER.
β28 years ago I did a series of single sleeves for a band called Longpigs. They were art directed by Pat & Jo Skinny, and the band left the three of us alone to do what we liked. It was the perfect creative partnership. In March of this year I went up to Sheffield for the day to photograph that bandβs guitarist, Richard Hawley, who I had not seen since a night in Paris in 1996. We did some pictures at The Samuel Worth Chapel in the Sheffield General Cemetery. Then we spent the rest of the afternoon in the pub listening to Richardβs amazing stories of his life in music. It was the perfect way to spend a day.β

In Chrisβs wordsβ¦
βThis is the second time Iβve photographed Sir Keir Starmer. Last month I was commissioned by You Magazine to spend a couple of hours with him in the lead up to the final Arsenal game of the season, against Everton, played at their home stadium, The Emirates, in London. The night before the game, I was given the details of the pub where he likes to meet his football pals, and told to arrive there at 2.15pm. The game was due to kick off at 4pm. This meant Iβd have about 90 minutes to shoot my pictures: Sir Keir in the pub, doing what football fans do in pubs before football matches: drink beer and talk incessantly about the fact that Arsenal really need a decent centre forward.
I arrive and weβre introduced, he remembers me from the book cover shoot, and Iβm invited to sit at the big pub table among the group, and snap away. I introduce myself to everyone at the table and explain why Iβm here and that if any of them donβt want to be seen in the pictures then they should just say and I will respect that wish. One of his friends, a fellow barrister, says that heβs more than happy to be seen with him, adding, βI adore him.β
Pints are drunk. The conversation is relentless, exclusively about football.
At 3.15pm we set off for the 20 min walk to the stadium, Sir Keir with his son, and about ten other people who he meets up with before the game. At first the walk was quiet, small groups of other fans here and there, unrecognised, anonymous. But then we emerged from the labyrinth of back streets onto Hornsey Road and, as always with a football crowd, you start to get the feeling that youβre one of millions of bees coalescing around the hive.
Iβm walking backwards, trying to shoot pictures of Sir Keir with his two friends, Chris and Macca, relying entirely on their goodwill to tell me if Iβm going to step in front of a bus, or under a lorry. I make the comment, βThis is where I get to say the immortal Ginger Rogers line, βI did everything Fred Astaire did, but backwards and in heels,ββ and it gets the laugh from the three of them that I need to make a picture fit for a magazine opening spread.β
Sir Keir Starmer, 19 May 2024
HEY HUMAN commission PHIL FISK to shoot this beautiful campaign for HNIV, the investment arm of HSBC.
βThe shoot was a heady three days with over 30 models. Starting at Shoreditch Studios we shot a mix of black and white portraiture whilst utilising the other studio textures for portraits that could feel more real. The agency wanted a bright feel throughout to incorporate the HNIV overlay and though this was easily achieved in the studio it would be harder work in the location spaces.β
βStyling and props were all overseen by VIC TWYMAN and her team who somehow pulled it all together in a short space of time and with a decent recce we were able to light and redesign the empty offices into multiple scenarios so quick it was like a dream. Big thank you to Peyo Alvarez and Emma Pottinger for sweat, blood but thankfully no tears!β
