Andrew Shaylor Photographer

I am a professional photographer. I photograph people and landscapes and stories. I really enjoy my craft and I am always looking for pictures and ideas. I have published two books. The first about Hells Angels, the second about Rockabilly. Please feel free to share my work and I'd appreciate a mention if you do. If you like my work, you can see more here www.shaylorphoto.com.

Concept, Mercedes Benz, Sindelfingen Last year, over a period of a few months, I worked on a book called Global Design Travelogue. The book tells the story of the design and the designers that represent Mercedes from around the world. Commissioned by @cardesignnews and the brainchild of @gorden.wagener CDO of Daimler AG, I spent time visiting design studios in Germany, Oregon and California. I photographed the people, the places, the machinery and the details. All this is now contained in a beautifully put together book. I will post a few of the images over the next week or two . . . . . #picturesfromthebrokenroad #globaldesigntravellog😎 #mercedes #daimler #cardesign #cardesigner #roadtrip #onlocation #onassignment #mbdesign #mercedesbenz #portraitphotography #sensualpurity #documentaryphotography #photobook #andrewshaylor #conceptcar #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephotography #andrewshaylorphotography #automotivephotography

Clearing out as I prepare to move house and I’m finding some memories. This is Kenny, HAMC Tyne & Wear holding the book I made about the Hells Angels which was published fourteen years ago! This was taken at the pre launch of the book at the Bulldog Bash. The cover is the back of Kenny’s head. He didn’t know he was going to be on the cover and I understand that he was immensely proud that he was. Kenny died earlier in the year. He was a true original, who never mixed his words and the few occasions that I spent with him were memorable . . . . . #picturesfromthebrokenroad #portrait #portraitphotography #portraitphotographer #hellsangels #archive #hellsangelsmotorcycleclub #hamc #81 #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephotography #andrewshaylor #findingmemories #andrewshaylorphotography #motorcycle #journeys #foundimage #fromthearchives

Interiors Team, Mercedes Benz, Sindelfingen. I like shooting groups. Not always easy but sometimes it’s best to get the group to ignore the camera.

Good friend and collaborator Mr Bill Dunn in his 1984 Black Saab 900 Turbo, about to begin another journey. I’ve been all over the world with this bloke and he still refuses to let me drive. Tried to make Buckinghamshire look like California... . . . . #picturesfromthebrokenroad #portraitphotography #portrait #sundown #sunset #teamwork #summerdays #automotivephotography #saab900 #turbo #roadtrip #andrewshaylor #andrewshaylorphotography #journeys

Found 6x4” en-print of a very calm sea taken from a small boat in Beer, Dorset. This was the first time I had taken my daughter out on a boat. At the time she was three years old and wanted to see if we could find any sea monsters. We looked , but found none. In my notebook I wrote that it was the calmest sea I had even seen and that the photo was shot on a Contax T2...which I still have . . . . . #picturesfromthebrokenroad #fbf #muckingaboutonaboat #seaside #beachlife #seascape #calm #contaxt2 #filmphotography #fromthearchives #andrewshaylor #andrewshaylorphotography #dorset #foundimages #summerdays

Found this very faded 5”x 4” Polaroid of a shoot I did for Tatler sometime in the mid nineties. Every year the Grosvenor House Hotel in Park Lane hosts the Debutantes Ball. The magazine asked me to arrange these young women artfully and try to get them to all look at the camera at the same time (which became my biggest challenge on the night). Three softboxes on the left and three on the right, all on full power and expertly helped by @gemmadayphoto and commissioned by @freedomfortooting . . . . . #picturesfromthebrokenroad #thelondonseason #debutante #debutanteball #tatler #polaroid #5x4 #filmphotography #faded #grosvenorhousehotel #andrewshaylor #andrewshaylorphotography #tatler #fromthearchives #magazineshoot

Shooting in Old Broad Street yesterday waiting for a bus, and then three turn up. We needed them for background interest. Camera left is my art director who was considering blocking traffic merely with his presence so we could get our shot. The centre of interest was @irammunawar who made the day a delight.
