Dan Wilton is a self-taught photographer whose work includes many exciting press shoots for musicians like MGMT, Dizzee Rascal and James Blake. [Dazed Digital](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hard-drive-reveal) has interviewed Dan Wilton, who willfully and enthusiastically addressed that which inspires and moves the photographer to do what he does.

Using only [film photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1), Dan Wilton turns often boring press shoots into whimsical works of art that truly capture his subjects' personalities. Dan Wilton photography creates a new dimension to the music and helps bands to find the visual side of their art. Personally, I think it's only a matter of time until Dan Wilton becomes the new Terry Richardson--going from superstar photographer to superstar/photographer.
