Morocco

It’s not often that I’ve had the privilege to travel with a fellow photographer that I also love and admire. Even rarer to split the journey and do each half with a different one. In Murrakush and Essouira with my father, I realised fully for the first time that he was a dear friend. From Casablanca to Fas and through the foothills of the Atlas mountains, my companion Lisa was as free and adventurous as I never quite dared to be.

Morocco

Every street was a composition in waiting, each encounter an artistic interaction. We sought out little adventures, exquisite moments, hidden corners, experiences I would have likely missed or overlooked on my own.
The souks, the mosques, the carnival chaos of Djama Al-Fna, finding secret Ryads, early morning swims, marvelling at Islamic symmetry, the old Jewish cemeteries, the blue of the Baḥr al-Rūm, the long shadows in Saint Laurent’s gardens.
Crumbling casbahs, rose-filled valleys, the technicolour weave of camel bags, palm trees edging along rivers in the desert, a fright and a fearful, headlong rush through the medina streets of midnight Fez, the sun coming up over Tinerhir, feasts in tents, storks nesting on minarets, long cigarette and wine-fuelled talks, deep into the night.
