A collection of stunning photographs capturing the essence of
fashionable London, from the known--Annie Lennox and her daughters,
Emma Watson, Russell Brand, and more--to the unknown"I spent the
last 30 years working and living in this great city and it is a
hard place to leave. Apart from the architecture and history it is
a place of wonderfully diverse and gifted people. New York may
pride itself on being a melting pot but London has this street
fashion thing which keeps on and on popping up new talent and new
personalities. When I say personalities this is not limited to the
rich and famous. London produces wave upon wave of eccentric,
engaging, unique, talented, courageous individuals. There is
something 'cool' about London and its people, whether they are born
and bred there are just passing through for a while." --Chris
Craymer"Top fashion photographer Chris Craymer shares his portraits
of London denizens who embody London style--people in his world,
friends, people he has worked with, and people he aspired to meet.
His subjects include the famous--Robert Pattinson, Peaches Geldof,
designer Bruce Oldfield, Liam Gallagher--and the not-so-well
known--an architect, budding ballerina, fashion editors, designers,
artists, photographers, students, hairdressers, make-up artists,
and his own daughter.
Features photographs that capture moments which perfectly
articulate the true meaning of romance.
The study and interpretation of relationships has been a lifelong
passion of Craymer. As a British photographer living in the USA he
wanted to explore this favorite subject of his this side of the
pond. He has always been attracted to storytelling. He likes to
explore the intimacy and connection between couples and seek to
portray their love and attraction to one other. He creates these
pictures by encouraging his subjects to express themselves in an
authentic way. The idea of this new book is to verify that romance
is alive and well in America as we head towards the end of this
second decade of the 21st century. The photographer could only
reach a small number of people but have attempted to reflect a
cross section of relationships that include ethnically diverse,
multigenerational, and LGBTQ couples. Love and laughter were the
uniting qualities in every relationship he explored. "As a Brit I
can say I found that romance reigns supreme in this wonderful land.
My book is a celebration of human interaction and what it is to be
alive and engaged with another person." Chris Craymer
