  • Britsh + born in Cape Town, John was a photojournalist + Picture Editor for The Observer from 1979-2001. His work ranged from the stark reality of war to celebrity chefs. His innovative + experimental style is clear in his work for the Darley Stud in Suffolk, the historic home of thoroughbred horse racing.

“John loved the idea of a photograph + wanted to do it for real – just photoshopping something in later wouldn’t have interested him.”
