- 2. IMAGES OUT OF THE ORDINARY ABOUT THESE IMAGES THIS WAS MY THIRD YEAR PHOTOGRAPHING AT THE BRIGHTON TATTOO CONVENTION, SO I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM WHAT I’D DONE PREVIOUSLY. WHILST YOU CAN’T REALLY PLAN WHAT YOU’RE GOING TO SHOOT AT AN EVENT LIKE THIS, I DECIDED I WOULD FOCUS ON PORTRAITS OF VISITORS TO THE CONVENTION, RATHER THAN THE ARTISTS THEMSELVES. COMPARED WITH MY ‘SNAP HAPPY’ APPROACH OF PREVIOUS YEARS, THIS TIME I WAS VERY SELECTIVE AND ONLY SHOOTING PEOPLE WHO HAD SOMETHING SPECIAL ABOUT THEM. THE RESULT IS, I THINK, A MUCH MORE MATURE AND VISUALLY INTERESTING COLLECTION OF IMAGES. AND, IN CONTRAST TO THE WAY THE TATTOO COMMUNITY ARE USUALLY PORTRAYED, I WANTED TO GIVE THESE PICTURES A SUBTLE YET GRAPHICALLY DYNAMIC LOOK. SOME, AS YOU WILL SEE, ARE QUITE, SHALL WE SAY, ‘EXPERIMENTAL’. FOR ME, THIS IS AS MUCH ABOUT THE FACES AS IT IS ABOUT THE TATTOOS, SO I HOPE YOU’LL AGREE THAT I’VE CAPTURED MORE THAN A FEW INTERESTING ONES. IF I’VE SUCCEEDED IN DOING THAT, THEN WHO KNOWS I MAY HAVE MADE AN INDELIBLE IMPRESSION ON YOU!

- 29. IMAGES OUT OF THE ORDINARY ABOUT GARY MARLOWE WITH A BACKGROUND IN MARKETING AND GRAPHIC DESIGN, GARY APPLIES HIS HIGHLY DISTINCTIVE VISUAL STYLE TO CREATING IMAGES OUT OF THE ORDINARY ACROSS A DIVERSE ARRAY OF SUBJECT MATTER, FROM ROCK MUSIC, FAST CARS AND FASHION TO FLOWERS, FOOD AND ANIMALS. WHATEVER THE SUBJECT, HIS WORK IS INSTANTLY RECOGNISABLE, BOTH IN ITS COMPOSITION AND ESPECIALLY WITH ITS PLAYFULLY ILLUSTRATIVE GRAPHIC STYLE. INVARIABLY, HE USES HIS IMAGES TO TELL STORIES AND IMAGINATIVELY CAPTURE A ONE-OFF EXPERIENCE. gary marlowe
