ABOUT THESE IMAGES
THIS WAS MY THIRD TIME SHOOTING GLORIOUS GOODWOOD. THE FIVE-DAY FESTIVAL IS THE HIGHLIGHT OF
GOODWOOD’S RACING YEAR AND ONE OF THE BIGGEST EVENTS IN THE SUSSEX SOCIAL CALENDAR. I WAS
THERE ON THE FIRST DAY AND ON LADIES DAY AND BOTH PROVED CHALLENGING TO SHOOT. TUESDAY WAS
OVERCAST, WET AND WINDY, WHILST CONVERSELY LADIES DAY WAS EXTREMELY HOT WITH BRIGHT
SUNSHINE. WHETHER IT’S THE HORSES OR THE CELEBRITIES, THERE’S PRECIOUS LITTLE TIME TO GET YOUR
SHOT; YOU HAVE TO BE IN THE RIGHT PLACE AND BE FAST. FOR ME, IT’S ALSO ABOUT BEING SELECTIVE. THIS
TIME I FOCUSED ON JUST TWO THINGS: GLAMOUR (OF WHICH THERE WAS A LOT, BUT THAT JUST MADE BEING
SELECTIVE EVEN MORE CHALLENGING) AND CHAMPION JOCKEY RICHARD HUGHES, WHO FOR THE 5TH TIME IN
A ROW WAS THE LEADING JOCKEY AT GLORIOUS. I DIDN’T WANT TO COME AWAY WITH JUST A BUNCH OF
SNAPS, I WAS STRIVING TO GET SOME REALLY EYE-CATCHING PORTRAITS. I’M REALLY HAPPY WITH THIS
COLLECTION. FOR ME THEY CAPTURE THE GLAMOUR OF GLORIOUS AS WELL AS THE PERSONALITY OF ITS
LEADING RIDER. I HOPE YOU LIKE THEM AS MUCH AS I DO!

7. the nations’s favourite sports PRESENTer, BROADCASTING FOR CHANNEL 4

8. I DON’T KNOW WHO THIS IS, BUT SHE CAUGHT MY EYE IN THE PARADE RING

9. ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS IMAGE. THE COLOURS, HER EXPRESSION AND THE WAY ONE OF HER EYES IS BEHIND THE
MATERIAL. THIS WAS PROBABLY THE MOST ELEGANT OF ALL THE HATS I SAW ON LADIES DAY.

12. HUGHESIE IS GREAT TO PHOTOGRAPH BECAUSE HE HAS SUCH AN EXPRESSIVE FACE. HERE HE IS TALKING IN THE
PARADE RING. I LIKE THE COLOURS OF THIS SHOT AND HIS EXPRESSION.

13. I ALWAYS TRY TO GET A SHOT OF LORD MARCH WHEN I’M AT GOODWOOD. I LIKE THIS ONE BECAUSE THE PINK
BACKGROUND WORKS WELL WITH HIS PALE SUIT. IT’S PROBABLY MY BEST PORTRAIT OF HIM.

14. I LITERALLY HAD JUST A FEW SECONDS TO PHOTOGRAPH ANNA WHO WAS PRESENTING AN AWARD. SHE WAS
WEARING A BRILLIANT HEART-SHAPED FASCINATOR, BUT I WAS MORE INTERESTED IN AVOIDING THE AUDI LOGO
AND GETTING A CLOSE-UP. SHE’S INCREDIBLY PHOTOGENIC AND HAS A BEAUTIFULLY EXPRESSIVE FACE.

16. I’VE SHOT THESE BUTTON-HOLES BEFORE, BUT LEARNT TWO THINGS ABOUT THEM THIS YEAR. FIRST I THOUGHT
THEY WERE CALLED BOUTONIERRES. THEY ARE, BUT ONLY WHEN WORN BY MEN. WORN BY WOMEN THEY ARE
KNOWN AS CORSAGES. ALSO, I FOUND OUT THAT GOODWOOD GIVE THEM AWAY FOR NOTHING.

17. THIS WAS ONE OF THE FIRST PICTURES I TOOK. I DON’T KNOW WHO SHE IS, BUT I LIKED THE WAY SHE LOOKED,
EVEN THOUGH SHE WASN’T WEARING A HAT. I LOVE THE COLOURS AND THAT HER EXPRESSION IS SO NATURAL.

19. A GREAT SHOT OF RICHARD OUTSIDE THE WEIGHING ROOM ADJUSTING HIS GOGGLES. WHAT MAKES THE PICTURE
FOR ME IS HIS EXPRESSION, HIS BODYSHAPE AND THE COLOURS OF HIS SILKS.

20. THE QUEEN’S ELDEST GRAND-DAUGHTER WAS AWARDING A PRIZE. SHE WAS WAITING ON HER OWN FOR AGES AND
APPEARED VERY SELF-CONSCIOUS IN FRONT OF THE CAMERAS, PERHAPS BECAUSE SHE IS PREGNANT. OF ALL THE
SHOTS I TOOK OF HER, THIS WAS THE ONE WHERE SHE LOOKED THE MOST NATURAL.

21. BEFORE THEY MOUNT UP, JOCKEYS COME INTO THE PARADE RING TO BRIEFLY MEET THEIR HORSES OWNERS. I LIKE
THIS SHOT BECAUSE OF RICHARD’S EXPRESSION AND BECAUSE THE COLOURS OF HIS SILKS JUST HAPPEN TO
MATCH THE BACKGROUND.

22. THERE AREN’T THAT MANY FEMALE JOCKEY’S AROUND, ALTHOUGH THERE WERE THREE IN THIS FUTURE STARS
RACE. SIOBHAN IS 22 AND THIS SHOT WAS TAKEN IN THE PARADE RING.

23. YOU WOULDN’T THINK THIS WAS TAKEN DURING A WINNER’S PRESENTATION, WITH ANNA STANDING NEXT TO FOUR
OR FIVE OTHER PEOPLE AND ME JOSTLING FOR POSITION IN A PACK OF SOME 25 OTHER PHOTOGRAPHERS. IT’S
SUCH AN INTIMATE PORTRAIT. IT’S ALL ABOUT HER EYES I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!

25. SUCH AN EXPRESSIVE PORTRAIT OF RICHARD IN THE PARDE RING. THE RED, WHITE AND BLUE COLOURS GIVE IT
AN AMERICAN FEEL. I LIKE THE TWO HORSES ON HIS COLLAR AND THAT HIS FACE IS IN COMPLETE PROFILE.

26. GIMMICKY? YES. BUT YOU HAVE TO SAY SHE LOOKED LOVELY IN THIS QUIRKY FASCINATOR. SHE TOLD ME IT’S
CALLED STRAWBERRY DAIQUIRI AND SHE MADE IT HERSELF!

27. THIS COUPLE LOOK LIKE THEY’RE MODELS AT A PHOTOSHOOT. I SPOTTED THEM LOOKING DOWN ON THE WINNER’S
ENCLOSURE AND JUST THOUGHT THEY LOOKED VERY ELEGANT. I GOT TWO GREAT SHOTS OF THEM.

28. ONE OF ENGLAND’S TOP FOOTBALLERS, MICHAEL HAS NOW RETIRED FROM PLAYING AND DEVOTES HIS TIME TO HIS
OTHER LOVE: HORSES. HE APPEARS TO BE ENJOYING THE SAME SUCCESS IN RACING AS HE DID IN FRONT OF GOAL.
IT WASN’T EASY GETTING A CLEAN PORTRAIT OF HIM AS HE WAS ALWAYS SURROUNDED BY PEOPLE.

29. I LOVE THIS PORTRAIT OF FORMER BALLERINA, DARCEY BUSSELL. IT HAS A VINTAGE FEEL TO IT AND I LIKE HOW
NATURAL SHE APPEARS, DESPITE THE FACT THAT SHE’S POSING FOR A HOARDE OF PHOTOGRAPHERS AT A
PRESENTATION.

30. I DON’T KNOIW WHO SHE IS.BUT I LIKE THE BLONDE TONES IN THIS SHOT AND HER WINDSWEPT HAIR. SHE ALSO
HAS AN INTERESTING FACE.

31. ONE OF MY FAVOURITE PORTRAITS. IT’S OF LEADING TRAINER RICHARD HANNON, WHO ALSO HAPPENS TO BE
RICHARD HUGHES’ FATHER-IN-LAW. I THINK IT REALLY CAPTURES THE SOUL OF THE MAN.

33. A SECOND SHOT OF THIS WOMAN AND HER FEATHERED HEADGEAR. A DIFFERENT FEEL TO THE OTHER PORTRAIT,
BUT I THINK EQUALLY BEAUTIFUL. ANOTHER IMAGE I’M REALLY PLEASED WITH.

34. A THIRD SHOT OF ANNA FRIEL, LOOKING SO PRETTY BEHIND HER VEIL. AGAIN, IT LOOKS LIKE A STUDIO SHOOT, BUT
IT WASN’T. HARD TO BELIEVE SHE’S JUST TURNED 37!
