Conor, a photographer to the stars, revisits the people who gave him his break.

Conor has photographed everyone from Calvin Harris to David Attenborough. As he prepares to work again after the pandemic, he revisits the people who gave him his big break.

Professional photographer Conor McDonnell got his big break when, as a 16-year-old, he got himself a press pass to photograph a gig in Manchester. Since then, he has travelled the world and photographed everyone from Calvin Harris in Las Vegas to David Attenborough in Kenya.

Whilst Conor prepares to get back to work again after the pandemic, he revisits the people and places that gave him his big break, going back to Manchester to meet with the first band he photographed, The Subways. And before he travels again, he wants to visit his old school to see the football kit he has sponsored and hear how his story of working with the stars has inspired students.
