‘I think you just feel instinctive, you got to just click on the moment,’ the late photographer Linda McCartney (1941–98) once said. ‘Not before it and not after it. I think if you are worried about light meters and all that stuff, you just miss it.’ 50 years ago, in 1968, she became the first woman to shoot a cover for Rolling Stone magazine. The following year she married Paul McCartney of the Beatles. Their daughter Mary is also a successful photographer and now three decades of hers and her mother’s pictures are mixed together in an exhibition that reveals a shared vision of the world. Whether shooting the world’s biggest celebrities, animals, landscapes, or just relaxed moments of family life, Linda and Mary McCartney’s approaches always remain complementary and harmonious.
