Legendary Photographer Gavin Watson Has Two Cameras stolen in East London

Reward Offered for Safe Return of Cameras

Clothing brand FLY53 has today announced a £1000 clothing reward for the safe return of camera equipment stolen from legendary photographer Gavin Watson at a photoshoot in East London.

The incident happened on the 19/08/10 as Watson was between shoots with Tim Burgess of The Charlatans and the bands Pulled Apart by Horses when an unidentified man stole 2 cameras from his bag, from under his table in a hotel reception near Old Street. The hotel staff hold clear footage of the man stealing the cameras on CCTV.

The cameras contained undeveloped films from a previous shoot with Shingai Shoniwa and Dan Smith from the Noisettes. FLY53 are now offering £1000 worth of their clothing for the safe return of these cameras and the film inside as the pictures form the basis of their AW10 campaign imagery, which centres around the collaboration of music and fashion and the label’s roots in music.

If you know anything about this or where the cameras and film are please contact FLY53
