Pop Photography
I was lucky to be working in Manchester with my first Nikon in hand and start my career photographing live musicians. As time went on these included many well known names – Madonna , New Order, Prince, Miles Davis, Nina Simone, James Brown and many more!

“Stephen Wright’s original photograph, used for the inside gatefold of The Queen is Dead, clinches the prize for the most famous image of the Smiths” Will Woodward – The Guardian
These days its been accepted as part of the collections of the National Portrait Gallery, the Manchester Art Gallery and the Salford Art Gallery. All rather funny when the original film was processed in a darkroom in my bedroom -with the chemicals kept in old drinks bottles!
