What really happens when Hollywood legends, rock icons, prime ministers and royalty step in front of the lens?
Hosted by Hugo Burnand – official photographer to King Charles III – and Cambridge Jones, described as Britain’s answer to Annie Leibovitz, Double Exposure is your backstage pass to the world of photography. It’s like overhearing conversations at an exclusive after-party, where stories about life and art are shared, and the truth behind some of history’s most iconic images is revealed.
They’ve photographed everyone from Al Pacino and Ozzy Osbourne to Victoria Beckham and the late Queen, capturing the faces that have shaped our culture. Now, Hugo and Cambridge lift the curtain on how those portraits – and some of the greatest images of the last century – really came about: what went right, what nearly went wrong, and how instinct, trust, timing (and yes, a touch of luck) turned fleeting moments into unforgettable pictures.
Each episode is part masterclass, part confessional – blending behind-the-scenes anecdotes with hard-won wisdom. Expect lighting secrets, compositional tricks, the psychology of working with power and fame, and the delicate art of putting a subject at ease. You’ll also meet the photographers who inspire them - and uncover the untold stories behind Hugo and Cambridge themselves.
In a world awash with snapshots, Double Exposure shows you how to truly see – and once you’ve heard these stories, you’ll never look at a photograph in quite the same way again.

Most of us hate having our photo taken, but there are simple rules that can make a world of difference. In this episode, celebrity photographer Cambridge Jones and royal insider Hugo Burnand explore what it really means to be photogenic — from discovering your best side to understanding how light, lens choice and perspective can transform a
portrait.
Along the way, they share the secrets behind flattering angles, why Princess Diana looked different in the press than in person, and how confidence and relaxation unlock true beauty on camera. Expect candid stories featuring Joan Collins, Nigella Lawson, Helen McCrory, John Hurt and more, as Cambridge and Hugo reveal how they capture not just a face, but the essence of a person.
