Jack Thompson

“Having Jack Thompson as our Photographer-In-Residence, a post that was created especially for him due to the quality of his work, and his infectious and inspiring personality, was truly an honour.

The work he created, and working with him, was an utter joy, not only to be left with the most sensational documentation of the work we do over a 3 year period, but to have such an artist in our midst was a deeply enriching experience. He made us look at and appreciate what we do like never before, and for the musicians themselves, it captured a precious moment in time.

Jack is an artist of the highest order.”

“Jack Thompson has a genuine and real talent. He documented us recording our EP 'Vice'. He has an ability to capture the perfect shot without you even noticing him being there.

The way he uses the camera to capture the moment is something truly special. In a world of a million filters and editing software, Jack captures the image beautifully in all its natural form.

He is a joy to work with and a pleasure to know.”

“Jack is an incredible talent and a consummate professional. I have been lucky enough to have attended two of his exhibitions. His photography often captures that rare spark of the human condition which is so fleeting and so valuable in its documentation."

“I had the pleasure of working with Jack on his project 'The Woman and the Light', which is a series of black and white fine art prints. The resulting images present the female form almost like a landscape. Jack works simply, using natural or ambient light to highlight areas of the form which creates a strong silhouette with a sensitive touch.

Attention to detail is at the forefront of everything Jack creates, from composition right down to the choice of quality fine art paper his work is printed on.

I look forward to collaborating with Jack again in the future.”

“Jack has photographed at Biddulph up in Arms and his tonal contrast style and eye for detail and composition has produced some stunning work."

“Jack came to watch a band at my pub one evening and then came back and blew me away with his photography....

...I've never seen anything like it.”

"Amazing photographer!... and the loveliest person. He only wants what's best for you and your creative project. Had a great time working with him and made a friend in the process.

Highly recommend Jack and his talents.”
