Our next In Focus interview features Justin Lockey. As well as being the lead guitarist of the indie rock band Editors, Justin is also a photographer, writer, director and producer. When he’s not doing any one of those things he’s asleep, or messing around with cameras, or reading about lenses and optical formulas.

In 2020 we got hold of a separate space where we built a much larger darkroom, hoping that the timing was right to attract enough new users. After a...
The biggest weekend
TRNSMT is arguably the biggest weekend of the year for music in Scotland, and yet this was my first time shooting the festival. I was very excited to be shooting it, especially for bands like Fontaines D.C., Confidence Man, VLURE, and Wet Leg.

Wow! what a fantastic week for entries. Please keep this up. It was such a great way to spend our morning looking through all of the posts that you have shared and tagged with #fridayfavourites.
