The Leopard Print Portraits © Gemma Taylor and Shutter Hub Editions
We’re delighted to announce our first solo book: The Leopard Print Portraits – a vibrant, feel-good celebration of fashion, individuality, and street photography showcasing the work of Gemma Taylor.
Gemma has captured a unique and joyful series of street portraits, focusing on people (and sometimes their four-legged friends!) proudly wearing leopard print. The result is a captivating collection of 100 portraits – a heartfelt tribute to self-expression, everyday style, and the bold spirit of this iconic pattern.
From busy city streets to quiet corners, The Leopard Print Portraits is a love letter to leopard print and the people who wear it with pride. We hope it brings a smile to your face – and maybe even inspires you to dust off your own favourite animal print piece.
“I was over the moon when Shutter Hub said “yes” to publishing my first book. They’re much more than a publisher; a generous mentor, cheerleader and creative collaborator.
When you make a book with Shutter Hub you can feel that its whole ethos is underpinned by kindness and an interest in people. This caring approach is poured into the products they create and the photographers they support.
Working on the layout with Karen was a delight – watching her curatorial instincts in action was a design masterclass. I’m so grateful that she carved out the time for us to work together in person – and for the exhilarating ride in her vintage car! (Her impeccable sense of style extends well beyond the page.)
The team’s input has truly elevated my work. They have been endlessly supportive and wonderfully patient throughout the process – thank you, Karen and Charlotte! I can’t wait to spot The Leopard Print Portraits out in the wild, gracing bookshops and galleries alongside other gorgeous Shutter Hub Editions.”
