This photobook showcases a young Amy Winehouse during happier times:
, is comprised of the shots taken during a couple of intimate photo sessions during that period.
Amy and Charles formed a friendship during the course of shooting and the portraits show a happy, healthy and relaxed Amy which are in contrast to the barrage of far more depressing tabloid images that marked her last years. We spoke to Charles about working with Amy and the responsibility of preserving a friend's memory.
Your shots are really beautiful and a reminder of happier times for Amy. Why did you wait thirteen years to publish them?last year and I came away with this deep sadness and I wanted to leave people with something happier. I think it's an amazing documentary but Before Frank is something different and casts her in a fresher and happier light. For me it feels like sharing a memory I've had for a long time. I think they needed to come out.
I thought about it but what struck me the most was that I might lose control. I really felt that I couldn't cut any corners and I didn't want it to be challenged by profit margins. Doing it myself I can make sure we create a book that's exceptional.Not really. I think I got really lucky with Amy because she's so striking and it was just super relaxed and we go some great shots without taking that many.
