GOODWIN - HULL WORLD CUP FESTIVAL - 2011

Hull might not have a premiership football team - but it does have its own World Cup Festival! On Sunday July 10th, 32 teams representing the 32 different nation communities that live in Hull took to the field to contest the Goodwin Hull World Cup with Iraq beating the Democratic Republic of Congo in the final.

Amongst documenting the general event as it happened, I took the opportunity to grab a few portraits of the players.

OFFICIALS ONLY - PRINTS

The prints are finally done!

Seeing as I chose to shoot the referee series on black & white film, I thought it would be appropriate and respectful to get them printed traditionally. Hand crafted on the classic Ilford Multigrade IV fiber based paper by a guy who printed for the photographers at Magnum, I knew they were going to look great. And they do . . .

Preparations for the exhibition has started to roll a little bit faster . . . please stay tuned.

NORTH MARSH CHANGING ROOM

10am, Monday 16th May, I spent the day documenting the inside of the North Marsh Changing Rooms. Soon to be re-furbished, it's interior features original 70's decor and is the quintessential of what is perceived as a football changing room.
