Photography: Stories, Projects, and Practice

The photographs are only part of the story. These posts look at the people, places, and decisions behind fashion editorials, portraits, street work, and books. If you are planning a shoot, there are also practical pieces about choosing a photographer and working through the challenges that come with making images.

Choose a starting point below. This is a selected route through the work, with a short reason to open each piece.

Explore the projects

• Sixteen Tales From Around the World brings fashion and editorial photography from eight cities together in one book. Start here for the widest view of the work.
• One Shoot, Five Stories: Why It All Clicked follows a Melbourne collaboration with Pia Gould and shows how one shoot can hold several visual stories.
• Paris in Motion: A Story in Black and White is a different kind of Paris story, told through movement and monochrome images.
• The Street Is My Studio on The Art of Photography introduces the zine and Ted Forbes’s feature of the project.

Behind the camera

A finished frame does not show every choice that led to it. These pieces are for photographers, collaborators, and anyone commissioning a shoot.

• How to Pick a Photographer for Your Next Marketing Campaign looks at style, fit, and collaboration before a project begins.
• Three Challenges Every Photographer Faces considers recurring problems in photographic work and how to approach them.
• Inside My Camera Bag shows the equipment behind some of the work, without treating gear as the whole story.
