Bestival Book project

This Series of portraits are part the Bestival book project “The Art of Dressing Up”. The Festival studio was a joint project with photographer Dan Smith and was inspired by Richard Avedon’s series, In the American West. We wanted to take the sitters out of the environment of the festival and shoot portraits of their amazing costume creations that now make up the largest fancy dress party in the world with over 50 000 people at a four day event. A selection of the work was also exhibited at the Proud Camden gallery in July 2014
