A 90-second shoot with Stephen Fry in 1989 launched the career of Andy Gotts, photographer to the stars. Through grift and graft and raw, honed talent, Gotts has become one of the most in-demand celebrity photographers working the circuits of Hollywood, British media, and the music industry. Gotts's dramatic black-and-while style turns faces into artworks of shadow and light, while his colour portraits capture his subjects' ineffable humanity.

For the first time Andy Gotts reveals the incredible depth of his archive, showing his most famous portraits and many rare images alongside. The book focuses on Andy's contact sheets, which reveal the process behind capturing the perfect image. Accompanying texts from Andy shed light on his craft and delve into the stories behind these captivating photographs. This really is the definitive, career spanning book, produced to the highest standards.

The book also contains personal testaments from a cross-section of the celebrities who Gotts has worked with: Alan Cumming, Gene Simmons, Ian McKellen, Jeff Bridges, Kylie Minogue, Michael Caine, Peter Capaldi and Simon Pegg.

Reviews for Andy Gotts: The Photograph; Ringo Starr Deluxe Edition

A new book by UK 'photographer to the stars' Andy Gotts shows off a wild collection of contact sheets featuring celebrities in seemingly unfiltered, unguarded moments - often with shockingly elastic faces and in body-baring poses. - Eric Hegedus, New York Post The star-studded images are one thing, but their candid context is what makes them special. - Joy Ling, Esquire Singapore As his new book of portraits, The Photograph, shows, many famous names have stepped in front of his camera, captured quickly in his distinctive, clean style, with the images featuring in magazines and newspapers, galleries and exhibitions, and even earning him an MBE from Queen Elizabeth II for services of his photography. - Chris Anderson, Air Magazine A new book, Andy Gotts The Photograph, is a compilation of celebrity photographs that bring out their personality and their humour. It does so by showing us the contact sheets from which the final image was chosen. - Teddy Jamieson, The Herald
