  “I’m a born again Cliff fan”: Photographer Robin Mellor on snapping avid Cliff Richard fans

  Last summer photographer Robin Mellor was visiting a psychedelics conference in Greenwich, London. By chance, on the same day in another part of the venue, a very different kind of event was happening: a Cliff Richard concert. Robin has come along with “my camera and a couple of films on the off chance I bumped into some sort of psychedelic wizard,” he tells It’s Nice That, “but the Cliff fans were far more intriguing.”

  Martin Parr teams up with Gucci to capture its new watch campaign

  We are all familiar with the vivid snapshots of Martin Parr; whose candid photographs capture the heart of every place he visits. The prolific photographer has been commissioned by Gucci to undertake his first major fashion campaign, #TimetoParr, which features the fashion house’s timeless watches. The series launches today on Instagram and captures subjects in nine locations around the globe; Asia, Italy, the UK and the US, featuring them in natural moments that emphasise everyday life. Parr captures the watches deftly and artistically, in angles and situations not typical of traditional fashion photography.

  V&A teases expanded photography space with new Tim Walker exhibition

  Given the amount of rugs, busts, and David Bowie books that fill up the cavernous Kensington museum, it isn’t entirely surprising that the Victoria & Albert’s photography offerings can, at times, feel a little skimpy. That’s all set to change next October when the museum reveals a new photography space that’ll double the current space given over to the medium.
