Steve Double Photos

Steve Double has been working as a professional photographer for 40 years specialising in celebrity portraits.

During that time he has dealt with every conceivable situation, from extreme
lateness to indecisive clients and from stroppy subjects to non-functioning equipment.

Some highlights of his career are having 90 seconds to photograph Bill Gates, waiting 6 hours for the Spice Girls (and then being sworn at by them), cadging a lift in U2’s private jet, being chided for lateness by Public Enemy, drinking Caipirinhas with Nick Cave, blagging an upgrade off Richard Branson, spending 5 days in a van with Nirvana and never having to wear a tie.

His work is held in the permanent collection of the UK’s National Portrait Gallery.

He is old enough to know better.
