Ian Hughes

I studied photography at college near Liverpool in the late 1980's and was lucky enough to be tutored by the renowned street photographer Tom Wood. He helped to inspire a lifetime love of street photography in me. I spent eight years as a cruise ship photographer mostly based in Miami. In 2006, I gained a degree in Editorial Photography at the University of Brighton and was taught by Magnum photographer Mark Power. Nowadays my photography is mostly nocturnal. My ongoing 18 year project photographing the areas surrounding floodlit football grounds at night has been published in The Guardian and various magazines around the world.
