Kevin Meredith

Brighton, UK

Kevin Meredith is an evangelist of the use of simple compact film cameras, although he is not a stranger to digital. His obsessions with food, shoes and swimming have won him commissions with Dr. Martens, The Times newspaper (UK), and Dell. He became well known in internet circles when he joined flickr.com as an early adopter in 2004. His first book, Hot Shots, was published by RotoVision in 2008. It sold out its first UK and US print runs in under a year and has now been translated into ten languages. His passion for passing on his knowledge of photography has not wained; since his first book he has written two further books and he regularly runs photography courses.
