Craig Fleming: Making a Connection – An ILFORD Inspires Film

Making a Connection is the latest video in our ILFORD Inspires series and features Sheffield born fashion and portrait photographer Craig Fleming.

Armed with his Mamiya RZ67, his go-to medium format camera, we joined Craig to shoot some black and white film studio portraits in Manchester’s Northern Quarter. Known for his quirky portraits and up close style, this video takes us behind the scenes of a film photography portrait shoot gives us an insight into how Craig chooses which film to shoot and how he goes about ‘making a connection’ with models and actors to capture the shot.

Filmed and Edited by Ben Piper – Furl.
