Non-Fiction Photography
From Where I Stand is photographer Mary McCartney’s
first book, introducing the very best work spanning her
career from the mid-1990s to the present. These images are a
reflection not only of Mary’s personal world, but also of
the unique relationships she establishes with the people she
photographs. She constantly seeks to put her subjects at
ease, watching and waiting for them to let the camera in
rather than imposing any formal ideas of composition or
technique. The book is centered around an outstanding
collection of portraits, from 50s-inspired rockabillies to
Paul and Linda McCartney, Madonna, Bono, Debbie Harry, Elvis
Costello, Dennis Hopper, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Kate Moss. Here are amazing people, places, and events as seen through
Mary’s eyes: the intimacy of backstage preparations among
the corps de ballet at the Royal Opera House; the raw energy
of fashion shows and rock concerts, both on stage and off;
the private spaces of home and family; and wittily observed
vignettes of visual delight.
