Foreword – Photography & image supplement

Welcome to Design Week’s photography supplement. It’s no secret that this industry has been through several twists and turns, many of which are explored here. Yet all change has both pros and cons, and there remain as many opportunities for photographers in these image-led times as there are new hurdles to overcome. As ever in creative disciplines, good talent shines through and continues to be sought by commercial and artistic buyers alike. Whether you are a photographer, someone tasked with buying or commissioning images, or merely interested in new trends, this publication showcases some of the most inspiring photography around today. As long as people remain fascinated by imagery, photographers will push the boundaries of this exciting craft.
