'Sunday Best: A celebration of diversity' by Katie Waggett, 176pp, hardback, 151mm x 199mm.
In the wake of a terror attack and determined not to let the voices of separatism win out, photographer Katie Waggett embarked on an intimate survey of London’s many religions. Her portraits of individuals in their most colourful religious outfits are accompanied by personal quotes, as well interiors from the places of worship. Sunday Best is a feast of colour and a love letter to a city that so depends on diversity for its survival.
‘As we tend to get caught up in the current climate of fear and hostility, Sunday Best reminds us to stop and think, to look beyond the surface and to challenge what we think we know about others.’ – Jilke Golbach, from the introduction
Katie Waggett is an award-winning documentary photographer based in London. Her work has been exhibited internationally.

'In Your Face', 128pp, cloth spine, 222mm x 160mm. Photography by Paul Trevor.
Paul Trevor’s extreme close-ups, made spontaneously on the streets of east London, capture Britain’s perennial social divide. They contrast the people in The City with those in the nearby market of Brick Lane. Shot during Thatcher’s reign, the imagery is as fresh and relevant today as it was then.
‘This series is a new twist on the street photo, but totally unlike anything I have seen before or since.’ – Martin Parr
