Jon Stockford is originally from England, but now lives in New York with his wife. A couple of years ago, I think it was my second trip to New York, I sent a message to Jon to ask if we could go shoot together. I didn’t really know the city that well back then, and I’ve been following his work for a while so I though ‘what the hell’ maybe he could show me around a bit. It was prob one of my favourite photo missions to date. (Thank you for that Jon!)
From the first time I saw his photographs I was taken with the humour and beauty that he manages to captured. He has a knack to photograph the small moments of happiness and irony in the world that most people don’t really pick up on. His shooting style is refreshing in a time where there’s a lot of the same out there, it’s like a beautiful mix between furtive street photography and raw photo journalism.
