Ray Stevenson

Ray Stevenson previously worked for underground papers like Oz and International Times and photographed stars like Marc Bolan and David Bowie before disillusioned went into semi-retirement.

All this changed in 1976 when he and his brother Nils went to work for the Sex Pistols. Ray became the official band photographer. Being in the right place right time, his photos capture all the major figures and bands in the beginning of punk and featured in the major weekly music papers. It made his fortune as later books like ‘The Sex Pistols File’, ‘Vacant’ and Punk Book all use his pics. 

Again his photos have become iconic not least the one below of the very photogenic Soo Catwoman and of course Siouxsie.
