Canadian-born Bryan Adams, best known for his rock music and hits such as (Everything I do) I do it for you, has divided his time between music and photography for nearly 10 years.
In this time he has managed to become a renowned snapper, with both British Vogue and i-D magazine carrying his pictures. The current portfolio of his work was released by Stern Magazine in Germany.

Bryan has recently released Anthology, a complication of music from the last 25 years. He is currently on a world tour, the UK part of which coincided with the start of the Portfolio exhibition.
The picturesque setting of Nunnington Hall, offers the additional attraction of a 17th Century Manor House, well-known for its constantly changing programme of photography and art exhibitions.
