The magazine of the photo-essay
“A free, really high quality photo-essay magazine. Fabulous!”
Stephen Fry. British actor, writer and film maker
by Dafydd Jones
After winning a prize in a photography competition run by The Sunday Times
magazine in 1981 with a set of pictures of the ‘Bright Young Things’, British
photographer Dafydd Jones was hired by, bible of the upper crust, Tatler magazine
to photograph the Hunt Balls, society weddings and debutante dances of the British
upper class season, and would continue to do so until 1989.
“I had access to what felt like a secret world. It was a subject that had been written
about and dramatised but I don’t think any photographers had ever tackled before.
There was a change going on. Someone described it as a ‘last hurrah’ of the upper
classes.” - Dafydd Jones
