KEY TAKEAWAYS

• In the beauty industry, nothing comes easy. You have to put in the hard work, which in turn promotes respect and encourages discipline.
• To simplify and refine and strip back the excesses when it comes to beauty, takes the kind of wisdom and restraint that can only come through experience, and having suffered victories and setbacks.
• Social distancing had a huge impact upon not just the beauty sector but the way we interact and operate with each other. It may take another generation before it completely settles.

ABOUT THE GUEST

Jack Eames

One of the UK’s prominent hair and beauty photographers and video directors, the foundations of Jack Eames’ approach to visual imagery is rooted in the understanding that connection and vibrancy must inform every piece of work.

Jack’s background in photojournalism provides his photography a sense of intimacy and understanding. Similarly, his video work always looks for original methods of building a visual narrative to tell a unique story.

Based in Shoreditch at White Rabbit Studios, in the heart of London’s creative quarter, Jack works both in the UK and internationally, across editorial and commercial projects. He prides himself on building long lasting authentic relationships with his clients and has a reputation for excellence, attention to detail and innovation.

Over his 16-year career Jack has built up a vast portfolio of commercial and personal work, with highlights including shooting the cover of AoP Magazine, guest lecturing aspiring photographers at Central Saint Martins and working on his original photo documentary project with UK charity, Haircuts 4 Homeless, who provide respite and practical care for the vulnerable.

Jack’s work is always focused on accentuating the storytelling elements of a subject and capturing a quality of ‘energetic stillness.’

Jack works with a talented team of trusted experts, from assistants to retouchers, with whom he has a close professional relationship and a vibrant, creative synergy which leads to imagery and video that is dynamic, fresh and meaningful.

To date his work has been published in Vogue, LOVE Magazine and Hunger among many others.
