Chris Floyd is a UK-based portrait photographer and filmmaker with over three decades of experience shooting editorial, celebrity, music, commercial, and advertising commissions for clients across the UK and worldwide.
He first made his name in the 1990s with candid portraits of the Britpop scene, Oasis, Shaun Ryder, Supergrass, and others several of which now sit in the National Portrait Gallery's permanent collection.
Since then, Chris has built a reputation as one of the UK's most trusted portrait photographers, known for a reportage sensibility and an instinct for putting sitters at ease. His subjects span film, music, sport, politics, and business, including David Bowie, Cate Blanchett, Robert De Niro, David Attenborough, Ai Weiwei, Damien Hirst, Marcus Rashford, and Bill Gates, among many others
His first monograph, Not Just Pictures (Reel Art Press, 2022), gathers 320 pages of portraits and the stories behind them, drawn from his 30-year career
