Jethro

Jep is a very talented actor based in London and I have been great friends with him for over thirty years. We grew up next door to each other in the same Somerset village where our parents still live and from time to time we manage to meet up. Taking his photograph has always been a complete joy especially as he has, dare I say it, an amazing characteristic and handsome face but also it’s a great opportunity to have a long overdue catch up! Having always had a deep interest in the theatre and live performance (and yes, can you believe it, I have a qualification in performing arts!) I thoroughly enjoy hearing about what Jethro is up to in the world of theatre, tv and film. In 2012, I went to the Globe in London to witness Jethro star alongside Stephen Fry, Mark Rylance & Roger Lloyd Pack in Shakespeare’s Twelfth night, little did I know that one of my favourite photographers, Mary McCartney, was photographing them back stage! These head shots were taken just before we went into lockdown in Jethro’s parents garden, little did we know then what a strange six months would be ahead of us…
