Jamie Ferguson (@JKF_MAN) | #006
This week, Aleks sits down with an old friend, prominent street style photographer, Jamie Ferguson, better known on Instagram as @JKF_MAN.
Jamie’s been shooting menswear for five years, following a few years spent as an actor, and a few more working in fashion marketing. Today, he’s known for his compelling editorial and street style photography, shooting for a wide array of independent brands that make, in his own words, ‘interesting, wearable clothes.’
He talks to Aleks about his career path, plus what’s hot and what’s not in menswear today. He also explores the challenges of creating striking visuals in a market that’s obsessed with throwaway digital content, and highlights some brands that he rates for their originality.
Listen in if you’re interested in discovering men’s style brands that are cutting through the noise on social media today, and don’t forget to follow us on Instagram and Twitter @handcutradio if you think we’re onto something, too.
