Andy Hall is a London-based photographer specialising in reportage and portraiture, with over 35 yrs experience of working all over the world for numerous magazines and newspapers including the Observer and the Guardian; as well as NGO's including UNHCR. His work on the on-going climate crisis in the Sahel Region of Africa was screened at the Visa Pour L'Image photojournalism festival in Perpignan 2012. Andy has a growing reputation as a street photographer and has won accolades for his work in recent years, including the latest, which is from a set of photographs from the book project that has won him the Trieste Photo Days "Best Author" 2025 award judged by Magnum photographer Harry Gruyaert'. He said of Andy's work : "His compositions stand out; he's pulling order from chaos and some of his images are truly powerful".
This is a body of work from wanderings through London's city within a city known as the Square Mile. It's a visual take on the Psycho geography of this unique area that has been at the heart of how our economies are now run. Seen through the eyes of a street photographer, the book captures candid moments where workers interact with their urban environment of narrow ancient streets jammed up against shiny new glass monuments to 21st Century global capitalism.
