If there is a catchword that sums up 2019, it must be transparency.
Williams has been working with BAFTA on and off since 2019.
There is a lot of difference between photographing the BAFTAs and Williams’ usual stylized shoots, he says, but both work equally well.
“I love the balance of my working life because I do stuff like this where all I’m using is my experience, my empathy, the contacts I’ve made over the years, and wit. A lot of the photos come incredibly last minute and very opportunistically. You shoot them very quickly and suddenly. One thing I love about that stuff is being the guy in the room.”
