Francis Hills is known as the Accidental Photographer, and for a compelling reason: Five years ago, after losing his job during the dot.com bust, Hills picked up a point-and-shoot and discovered his true passion. His serendipitous journey only intensified from that point on. Just three months after he started shooting, he decided on a whim to write a letter to actor and fellow Brit Alan Cumming to request a photo shoot with him. To his delight, Cumming accepted, jump-starting Hills' professional photography career.
