The Weird & Wonderful × North West Barber Co

A few months ago I was contacted by Norman, he had just started renovating a new retail space to be the home for his store The Weird & Wonderful.

The Weird & Wonderful is a Natural History store specialising in the highest quality taxidermy, osteology, entomology and oddities from around the world. And just when you thought things couldn’t get any cooler, it shares the large retail space with The North West Barber Co. Obviously when I was asked to come up to Accrington to photograph the space I could hardly say yes fast enough.

While I was getting technical with my lighting & composing my shots Spadge was taking an interest in Normans story. She’s put together a great article on the shop & him here — I throughly recommend checking it out.
