Chris Floyd - Savile Row / DFD

CHRIS FLOYD captures the spirit and stories of the tailoring companies of Savile Row, in this lovely commission for DUTCH FINANCIAL DAILY.

The doors of Anderson & Sheppard, Huntsman, and Banshee, were opened and Chris was welcomed, “with such warmth and bottomless pots of tea, as well as the occasional sip of something stronger”.

In Chris’s words, “My favourite little artefact (last picture): From Anderson & Sheppard’s ledgers, Marlene Dietrich’s 1937 measurements and order for a man’s suit. Notice that in the column on the left the customer is asked to write who they were referred by. In Ms Dietrich’s case the referrer was Douglas Fairbanks Jr.”

 

Chris Floyd - Mark Cavendish / Men's Health

CHRIS FLOYD recently captured these wonderful portraits of SIR MARK CAVENDISH KBE for MEN'S HEALTH.

In the words of his yellow-jersey-wearing pal, Olympic gold medallist Sir Bradley Wiggins, 'This fella is the GOAT.'  The British cyclist made history in his final Tour de France this year, with a record-breaking 35 stage wins.

In Chris’s words.. “The man gives it everything, no matter what he’s asked to do. We wanted to do one final shot at the end: the old long exposure light painting trick with a torch. Mark offered to draw a man on a bicycle and despite several acceptable attempts in the first few goes, he insisted on carrying on, believing that he could do a better one. So great to work with someone who’s willing and wants to give to the process.”

Phil Fisk - Observer / Ibrahim Nash'at

"The secret service asked to see my footage. I left the same day"...

The Observer commissioned Phil Fisk to capture these compelling portraits of documentary-maker Ibrahim Nash'at, who was embedded with the Taliban after US forces fled Kabul in 2021, whilst creating his fly-on-the-wall documentary, Hollywoodgate.

Described as “a darkly comic, damning insight into the regime", this astonishing documentary has been a hit at film festivals - featuring scenes of the Taliban exploring some of the “$7bn worth of equipment left behind in Afghanistan when the US made its hasty departure … everything from tactical fighter jets and M16 rifles, to a fully equipped gym and a fridge loaded with Jägermeister and Johnnie Walker Red Label.”

As always, Phil captures thoughtful and beautifully poignant portraits of his sitter.

In the words of Ibrahim, "The power of the camera I’m holding is as strong as the weapon they hold in their hands, maybe even much stronger."

Chris Floyd - Idler / Richard Hawley

CHRIS FLOYD shot these fabulous portraits of singer/songwriter and guitarist RICHARD HAWLEY for the new issue of THE IDLER.

“28 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 band’s 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 Richard’s amazing stories of his life in music. It was the perfect way to spend a day.”
