Mary McCartney at The Conway Hall





Last night, photographer Mary McCartney was joined in conversation with Robin Derrick -worked in i-D mag then along the way working with Nick Knight and Mario Testino to eventually become creative director of British Vogue. He also contributes as creative director to the Armani brand.
Many of McCartney's images were discussed, mainly talking about how, why and when they were created and any story behind them. Her mother was a huge influence on her becoming a photographer, having watched her while growing up.

'Off Pointe' - A Photographic study of the Royal Ballet After Hours was one of McCartney's personal projects - beautifully natural photographs following the ballet dancers for 3 months off stage and in their home environments.
