Sir Roger Deakins is one of today’s most honored cinematographers, renowned for his diverse and expansive body of work. He has been nominated for 15 Oscars, winning twice for Best Cinematography with the films “BladeRunner 2049” and “1917.” Deakins has also received five BAFTA with 10 nominations. In 2022, Deakins was knighted by Prince Charles in recognition of his contributions to film. He remains the only cinematographer bestowed this honor.
In 2020, Roger Deakins and his wife and collaborator, James Ellis Deakins, started a podcast called Team Deakins dedicated to the world of film. Byways (2021) is Roger Deakins’ first monograph and in 2022, his photographs have been exhibited in institutional art spaces and galleries in the United States and Europe to international acclaim.
