So Die Another Day was the first time you were hired specifically to cover the making of a Bond film? So I shot that and then I didn’t think about Bond until they were about to shoot Die Another Day when I get this phone call going, “You’re doing it.” I took like 60 photos because there wasn’t a lens wide enough to get the whole set in one picture. I was told, “Look, we can’t get you in front of Pierce Brosnan but if you want to come and shoot this set because it’s the biggest set being constructed in Europe…” So I went to the water tank at Pinewood, climbed up to the top and did a Hockney-style montage. They had this huge set for Zukovsky’s Caviar Fishery. I was shooting an on-set book about film sets and I reached out to EON and asked about visiting the set of The World is Not Enough. Let’s talk about your Bond journey, where did you and 007’s paths first cross? To celebrate the release of No Time To Die Greg, in partnership with EON Productions, has released 007 X GWP – a limited edition series of prints of 25 of his favourite images taken during the making of Daniel’s Craig’s five 007 adventures. Here he talks to 007.com about his time behind the lens for 007 and picks some of his favourite Bond images. His intimate, unguarded portraits of the stars of the films and much loved 007 poster campaigns are the hallmarks of the style this former reportage photojournalist (who early in his career covered war zones in Burma, Chechnya and Sierra Leone) has brought to more than 200 film shoots. Perhaps no photographer in the last 20 years is more closely associated with Bond than Greg Williams.
