I recently checked out the work of photojournalist Jocelyn Bain Hogg for his collection of photos that document a society obsessed with celebrity culture. While browsing Idols+Believers, I revisited a piece that left a stronger impression on me. This particular set entitled, The Firm, gives us a closer look into the world of organized crime in the UK. Bain Hogg spent four years alongside the men and women of the British underworld offering them a chance to be represented as honestly as possible. The foundation of their relationships – that loyalty must remain their foremost concern – becomes very apparent through the photographs. The whole book is in B&W as are the lives of the subjects depicted. The following photos are some of my favorites. Enjoy.
See the rest of the set here.
