An image from my recent series The Candy Men has been published in the latest edition of Portrait of Humanity by Hoxton Mini Press. The image, which is just one from a larger body of work, was shot in Mumbai, India last year. The image shows a local candyfloss (cotton candy) seller with his homemade rig for displaying the candy and attracting a sale. You can see the whole series by clicking on this link www.jonenoch.com/candy-man and you will of course be able to find the book - as they say - in all good bookstores. As an advertising photographer who usually works for a client, it's enormously satisfying and rewarding to shoot personal work like this which is totally in my own vision.
California lifestyle
Here are a few images from my recent travels around California over the Christmas break. San Francisco, LA and Palm Springs via Big Sur and Santa Monica and Santa Barbara...with a bit of a wine stop in Solvang. It's good to take time off but being a lifestyle and advertising photographer the cameras are never far away.
Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung
My recent ‘Bikes of Hanoi’ project contines to pick up attention from around the world. It was recently awarded a Gold at Px3 - Prix de La Photographie Paris - https://px3.fr - it has also made of the cover of Frankfurter Allgemeine’s magazine - images below.
Hanoi Bikes
Some personal work here from a shoot over in Hanoi, Vietnam. Shooting the cities colourful moped riding delivery drivers and vendors. We were in the city for a little under 1 week finding and shooting the men who use their two wheeled bikes to deliver a huge array of goods from fish to children’s toys. We shot at night, a combination of wanting to capture the mixed light of the evening and also out of logistics; its hard to find any space in the day time that isn’t occupied.
Dreamland
A recent commission to capture the colour and characters of Dreamland, a newly reopened fairground – once London’s answer to Coney Island. As a lifestyle photographer I’m lucky to go on a good amount on travel assignments - even to Margate.
Norway - Into The Wild
Some images from a recent shoot in Norway for a six page travel feature. I spent four days in Northern Norway with an arctic survival guide and former Norwegian Special Forces soldier. It was late summer so the conditions were not as harsh as they could have been. No tents, we slept under the stars and caught fish in remote lakes. So isolated was our location that in the four days we didn't see another person, car, road or in fact any sign of man. As a lifestyle photographer you couldn’t wish for better light or subjects.
