Steve Emberton
From and early age I have loved taking pictures of just about anything but my true passion is photographing people.
In the 70's I worked as the staff photographer for the music paper Record Mirror. I've also worked for NME, Sounds and other magazines, newspapers, record and PR companies.
I have photographed pop stars, TV personalities, politicians, actors, models, the general public and of course my family and friends. My photos have been used on album sleeves, in magazines, newspapers and on TV for over thirty years in countries all around the world.
Rolling Stone Magazine selected one of my pictures of Sid and Nancy for their 50th Anniversary Of Rock, Fifty Greatest Portraits Issue (Sept. 2004) alongside the work of others like Richard Avedon, Anton Corbijn, Herb Ritts, David Bailey and Annie Leibovitz.
My approach to photographing people is to be friendly and relaxed but at all times professional.
All my photographs are copyrighted and all rights are reserved (more detail). If you would like to license a photograph, please contact me.
