Born in Kent, Cannon started making films at 12 years of age with school-friend Paul Greengrass (Bourne Supremacy, United 93) and a clockwork Bolex. Educated at Sevenoaks and the Slade, Cannon started producing documentaries for BBC in the early1980s.

Trained as a Film Editor his early films shone an inquiring light into corners of life in Britain and America; A Lads Night Out for BBC 40 Minutes exposed the social divide in British horse racing; Bronx After the Fires captured street-life on a South Bronx block; Gang City followed the LA County Sheriffs and Santana Block Cripps trapped in the deadly gang wars of South Central LA. Olongapo Rose told the story of a Filipina bar-girl living beside Subic Bay US Navy Base. In the mid 80s Cannon photographed the Hmong and Karen hill-tribes in northern Thailand and the People's Power revolution in the Philippines.

Between 1995 and 2005 Cannon lived and worked in Indonesia photographing and producing TV commercials, news for CNN, documentaries for Animal Planet and Discovery Channel, film and photography for the energy industry. Since 2004 Cannon has been visiting Kazakhstan, regularly, covering the giant Tengiz oil field expansion project. Cannon lives on the weald of Kent in England, with his wife Neneng and their two young sons, Thomas and William.

Born in England, Stowers left home at 19 to travel the world. That was in 1987 and he never went back. Adventures followed; hiking across Tibet, across Borneo by foot and river, sailing a leaking Prahu from Flores to Singapore. Photography discovered Stowers along the way and they have been together ever since.

Shooting for Asiaweek in the 90s he covered the great events that shook Asia, the Hong Kong handover, the fall of Suharto. Stowers has been a member of London's prestigious Panos Photo Agency since 1992. He has lived and worked in over 55 countries, shot guidebooks for Insight and Dorling Kindersley, and his work regularly appears in The Telegraph, The Independent, The New York Times, TIME, Newsweek and Businessweek.
