John Ferguson has photographed some of the biggest names in the world. Michael Jackson, David Bowie, Beyoncé, royalty, politicians and sporting legends have all stood in front of his camera. Yet this conversation isn't really about celebrities. It's about curiosity, storytelling and the personal projects that have shaped a remarkable career. John shares how he finds ideas, approaches subjects, and creates work that goes far beyond a single photograph.

This week Tom has a sit down with Olga Karlovac,

Olga Karlovac is a self-taught, abstract and street photographer, born in Dubrovnik, Croatia. She is best known for her unique and expressive style of photography and her trilogy of self-published photobooks.  

Olga uses her camera to capture fleeting moments and emotions. Working exclusively in black and white, predominantly after dark and in rainy conditions, her abstracted images blur the lines between figuration and visual poetry. Her dreamlike scenes lead us down winding streets and invite us to linger and lose track of time, to recognise the familiar within the barely there.

We chat about her process, book-making, and much more.
