Dennis Gilbert 2021

I was still studying for my part 2 whilst working part time when I was lucky enough to get a small school dance studio I had designed photographed by the RIBA Journal & Dennis Gilbert. The scheme got a front page (1997) no doubt due to the way Dennis had approached the shoot including the cheeky nature of the local school kids when seeing a photographer in their playground. Dennis came across as very quiet (a bit like me!) and he gave me a couple of his test shot polaroids, which have always featured on my website since my practice was set up. Sad to hear of his death.
