Tom Oldham is a photographer specialising in portraits and he’s shot everyone. Athletes, olympians, footballers, models, everyone from Liam Gallagher and Jack White to Usain Bolt. His images are wonderful, he takes creative risks which I love and we also discuss work he does in education to get photography into schools.More about this show:A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you’ll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I’m interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.
