15 YEARS | MARY MCCARTNEY Clockwise from here, Sir Ian McKellen; Stella McCartney; Dame Helen Mirren; Tracey Emin as Frida Kahlo; pearly kings; previous page, Kate Moss; next page, Dame Vivienne Westwood “I HAVE A SHOOT TODAY, SO I HOPE you don’t mind that I’ll be packing cameras into bags as we talk,” says a cheerful Mary McCartney, “but this is a good time to chat,” she reassures me. You might expect the daughter of a Beatle and the sister of a top fashion designer to be guarded around strangers, but there’s nothing prickly about McCartney. She is bright and breezy and chuckles frequently. Her fi rst book, a career-spanning collection of photographs called From Where I Stand, is about to be published and McCartney is buzzing about it: “It’s great to fi nally have a book to show people; 86 | TRAVELLER | 15 TH BIRTHDAY ISSUE I’ve never had that before. Now I can give it as a gift: ‘Here’s my book, have it!’” Mary McCartney was born in 1969, the fi rst child of Beatle Paul and photographer Linda. She was named after her paternal grandmother (who inspired the song Let It Be), and as a baby she stared out at the world from the cover of her father’s solo album McCartney, tucked inside his coat. From Where I Stand draws on all the photos McCartney has taken over the last 15 years, “so it was hard choosing which images wouldn’t make it in,” she laughs. “It might seem like a lot of photos, but there are also favourites that aren’t in there. I kept saying, ‘Can’t we just make it a bit longer?’ I had to get the fl ow right as well, because I included all the different types of images: work for commissions, portraits, my exhibited works, and my personal photos of my family.” It would be a tough enough task for any photographer, but it’s complicated further for McCartney by the fact that her family snaps are also celebrity portraits. Paul is shown in private moments at home, while Stella looks at ease showing off her pregnant belly or riding her horse at the family farm in Sussex. McCartney’s family presumably fi nd it far easier to be photographed by her than by anyone else. “Defi nitely... because I’m family, but for me, it’s almost the opposite! I fi nd it far harder to photograph people who I know well than people I don’t.” Many of her pictures celebrate British identity and eccentricity. The book
