Jock Sturges

Jock Sturges (1947- ) is highly regarded and admired for his extended series of family portraits, often covering decades in the lives of the people photographed. He works mainly in California and France, and most recently Ireland, using a large format view camera, and credits his subjects with the success of his photographs: "The best thing I do as an artist is to like the people I photograph. My best long-term work has always been about that. Relationship is all. I am working with some people now well into a third decade. It is such a rich privilege to bring that much knowing to a picture, a privilege and a pleasure.”
