Jamie Hawkesworth

Summary

Jamie Hawkesworth is a British fashion and documentary photographer.[1][2]

Hawkesworth's first photography project was made in Preston bus station as a member of the collective Preston is My Paris.[3][4] The work was published in their 2010 self-published newspaper as well as in his own 2017 book, both called Preston Bus Station. That experience has influenced his work since,[1] shooting fashion campaigns, catalogues and editorials.[1]

He has had solo exhibitions at The Hepworth Wakefield in Wakefield, UK; Red Hook Labs in Brooklyn, New York City; and Huis Marseille in Amsterdam; the latter showing a mix of his personal as well as his commercial photography.[1][2]

Life and work edit

Hawkesworth grew up in Ipswich.[5] He first used a camera in 2007 as part of his studies for a forensic science degree at the University of Central Lancashire in Preston.[1][5] He subsequently switched to a photography degree, graduating in 2009.[5]

His first completed photography project was Preston Bus Station,[1][2] street photography, portraits of people, and a short film made over three years in Preston bus station[1] in North West England, including one whole month spent there. It was made as a member of the collective Preston is My Paris.[3][4] The photographs were included in the group's 2010 self-published newspaper, as well as in Hawkesworth's own 2017 monograph. He has said of the project "it informed how I understand light, how I approach people. It’s at the heart of the way I see things."[1]

His fashion work has included shooting campaigns and catalogues for JW Anderson and Loewe (both in collaboration with Jonathan Anderson),[6][7] and editorials for Vogue, Fantastic Man, and T: The New York Times Style Magazine.[1]

Hawkesworth uses the same Mamiya RB67 medium format film camera and lens for all his work, and develops and makes his own prints.[5][8][9]

In 2014 the British Journal of Photography pronounced Hawkesworth "One to Watch".[10] In 2017 The New York Times said he is "feted as one of the most talented fashion photographers of his generation".[1] His images have been described by I.D. as being "defined by their romantic warmth, simple beauty, and emotional openness".[2] In 2018 he received the Award for Editorial, Advertising and Fashion Photography, from the Royal Photographic Society.
