The first monograph of a rising star in the world of fashion photography and film, this dazzling volume is filled with lusciously colored images that capture Moses’ eye for beauty and talent for storytelling.

Gabriel Moses was only eighteen when he received his first commission—from Nike. Since then the self-taught British Nigerian photographer has been in enormous demand, with clients that range from Louis Vuitton and Burberry to Dior and Vogue, and from stars such as Pharrell Williams, A$AP Rocky, and Skepta. Gorgeous full page reproductions capture Moses’ uniquely atmospheric vibe—marked by deep colors, rich textures—as well as his startling ease with his subject, be it music, fashion, or sports.

A series of essays include a foreword by Moses, touching on his own ideology and practice; Federico Sargentone’s insightful exploration of Moses’ work; contributions and personal accounts by Matthew Williams, Ciesay, Clint, Samuel Ross and Slawn, among others; and a series of in-conversations, one with Skepta discussing the totality of life; and the second with Nick Knight exploring the depths of photography. Touching on every aspect of his work to date, including a number of previously unpublished images, this stunning and contemporaryfeeling monograph, designed by Hassan Rahim, dives deep into Moses’ visual language and highlights his profound connection to family, community, and the culture around it.
