Meet Cambridge Jones and Hugo Burnand, two photographers at the top of their game. In the first episode of Double Exposure they share their journeys into photography and the moments that made them – from family loss and a horse’s head to Tony Blair and a chance encounter with Queen Camilla’s sister.

How do Cambridge and Hugo approach a shoot? Putting your sitter at ease to reveal the truth inside them is key. Did Irving Penn have it right when he crammed his subjects into a tight corner to make them as uncomfortable as possible?

Plus the difference between photographing royals and celebrities, Margaret Thatcher's pose and the story behind shooting the King in the dark.
