Video: The Beautiful People exhibition at the Riverside
Stephen Price has launched his first photographic exhibition, “The Beautiful People” in the Riverside Theatre foyer gallery in Coleraine.
The NRC Ballymoney lecturer and author has been taking photographs since he was ten and his debut is a collection of eyecatching portraits.
The exhibition title, The Beautiful People, is a play on the notion of fashion glamour.

“My best shots have been semi-accidental, captured moments when the subject ignored the camera altogether.
“People are more beautiful when they aren’t trying to be.”
The exhibition can be viewed at the Riverside Theatre until June 27.
