Über diesen Titel

 What really happens when Hollywood legends, rock icons, prime ministers and royalty step in front of the lens? Hosted by Hugo Burnand – official photographer to King Charles III – and Cambridge Jones, described as Britain’s answer to Annie Leibovitz, Double Exposure is your backstage pass to the world of photography. It’s like overhearing conversations at an exclusive after-party, where stories about life and art are shared, and the truth behind some of history’s most iconic images is revealed. They’ve photographed everyone from Al Pacino and Ozzy Osbourne to Victoria Beckham and the late Queen, capturing the faces that have shaped our culture. Now, Hugo and Cambridge lift the curtain on how those portraits – and some of the greatest images of the last century – really came about: what went right, what nearly went wrong, and how instinct, trust, timing (and yes, a touch of luck) turned fleeting moments into unforgettable pictures. Each episode is part masterclass, part confessional – blending behind-the-scenes anecdotes with hard-won wisdom. Expect lighting secrets, compositional tricks, the psychology of working with power and fame, and the delicate art of putting a subject at ease. You’ll also meet the photographers who inspire them - and uncover the untold stories behind Hugo and Cambridge themselves. In a world awash with snapshots, Double Exposure shows you how to truly see – and once you’ve heard these stories, you’ll never look at a photograph in quite the same way again.

  • Inside the World of Cecil Beaton Part 1: Fashion, Fame and Reinvention

    Inside the World of Cecil Beaton Part 1: Fashion, Fame and Reinvention
    Dec 16 2025
    Cambridge Jones and Hugo Burnand explore the dazzling world of Cecil Beaton – one of Britain’s most influential photographers. From Hollywood portraits to Vogue fashion shoots and iconic images of the Royal Family, Beaton was the master of creativity within the frame. But was he actually a photographer? Find out what happened behind the scenes of his shoots with Elizabeth Taylor and Marilyn Monroe and why if you put Cambridge and Hugo in a photographic blender you’d get Cecil Beaton! Discover: How Hugo and Beaton share surprising parallels: school days at Harrow, royalty, celebrity portraits, and high society access. Beaton’s early years: a Box Brownie, a camera gifted at 12 (used astonishingly far into his career) and two glamorous sisters who became his early subjects. The story behind his meteoric rise: from Cambridge to Bright Young Things to Vogue to New York. Beaton’s belief in performance and reinvention: “I don’t want people to know me as I really am.” How photographing Edward and Mrs Simpson inadvertently opened palace doors. The Vogue scandal: how a hidden anti-Semitic phrase in an illustration lead to pulped copies and his abrupt firing. Why his cultural impact is huge, but auction prices don’t match contemporaries like Steichen. Cecil Beaton’s Fashionable World is at the National Portrait Gallery until January 11. Hosted by royal photographer Hugo Burnand and celebrity portrait photographer Cambridge Jones, Double Exposure is the podcast that gives you a new angle on the world we live in through the lens of photography.

  • A conversation with Martin Parr (part 1)

    A conversation with Martin Parr (part 1)
    Dec 11 2025
    “Very rarely do people get as close to being accurate as you have.” In this special and unplanned episode of Double Exposure, hosts Hugo Burnand and Cambridge Jones share the first part of an interview recorded with the great British photographer Martin Parr just weeks before his sudden death. In mid-November the team went to meet Martin at his foundation in Bristol, not knowing it would be one of the last interviews he did. We are shocked and saddened by the news and our deepest sympathies go to Martin’s family and everyone at the foundation. We had not planned to release this episode until the new year, and so it is unfinished. But in memory and celebration of Martin we wanted to share this intimate and wide-ranging conversation with one of Britain’s most important photographers – on his work, his philosophy, his influences and his hopes for the future of photography. We will release Part 2 of our interview in early 2026 as part of our full tribute to Martin’s life, work and legacy. Hear Martin talk about: - His 57 years in photography, his preference for shooting in England, and the rarity of producing truly great images. - How the UK undervalues photography, and why other countries respond more enthusiastically. - Where he finds pictures, how he works unobtrusively, and his approach to editing, volume, and printing. - The stories behind some of his best-known images and how families, chance, and contact sheets shape a photograph’s life. - His early influences, from his grandfather to Tony Ray-Jones and the American street photographers. - Subverting the cliché, honesty, and what makes work feel genuinely original. You can find a film of our interview with Martin on the Double Exposure podcast on YouTube. Hosted by royal photographer Hugo Burnand and celebrity portrait photographer Cambridge Jones, Double Exposure is the podcast that gives you a new angle on life through the lens of photography.
