UK street photography print sales

Prints, prints, prints!

Good news - I’ve set up a new instant-pay print store for my street photography prints here:

https://paul-russell.sumupstore.com/

The prints are all 15 by 10 inches (paper size), and have white borders as shown in the examples below. Prints are dispatched in sturdy poster tubes. The ones in the store above are all in stock, and usually dispatched within 3 working days. The store contains some pictures that have not previously been offered as prints.

Technical details: unframed, unmounted, signed on reverse. Digital C-type prints, printed on gloss Fujifilm Crystal Archive paper, open edition.

Prints are priced at £32 plus £4 postage and packing - a total of £36.

Alternatively, if you would prefer to pay me directly using my bank details, email me at [paul@paulrussell.info] for details and you will pay a total of £35, as we save £1 on merchant fees.

I’m currently carrying out UK sales, but that may change to include the USA soon. Thank you.

Featured in Marie Claire Taiwan

I'm pleased to have a double-page spread - three of my photos and an interview - in the August 2023 issue of Marie Claire magazine. My stormtrooper photo was taken on Weymouth prom this year; the horse is in the New Forest; and the laundry scene is in that London.

This issue of the magazine has the theme Laughter/Humour, and also features the Japanese photographer Shin Noguchi, who was kind enough to send me these spreads in electronic form. Thanks also to Marie Claire Taiwan for featuring me, and posting out a physical copy of the magazine.

Brighton Belongs to Me (2013) revisited.

This photo series is the result of about 30 daytrips I took to Brighton in 2013. It’s a place I know very well, having grown up in Sussex in the 1970s, and I lived in Brighton – not very successfully – in the 1990s.

The project is important to me because it was a rare occasion where I had a strong idea about how I wanted the collection of photos to end up, and the atmosphere I was looking for, and I keep coming back to the photos I took in 2013.

I was examining the town from the point of view of the long-term residents – the everyday experiences and scenes that confront Brighton residents. I wasn’t so interested in the tourist view of Brighton – the seaside, piers, amusements, blue sky days, and entertainment that you can find in abundance by Googling for images of Brighton.

As the project evolved, I found myself coming back to Keith Waterhouse’s phrase that “Brighton is a town that always looks as if it is helping police with their inquiries”.
