It was my job to look and look and never look away, until I had captured every part of the scene, until I had told the story of those last moments that the dead could not...
For years, A.J. Hewitt was the first person into a crime scene. Before the detectives and the forensics team it was her alone with the body, the only sound her flashes firing as they lit up scenes of unimaginable horror. It was her job to shoot the photographs that revealed the circumstances of someone's final moments.
Now in her debut book, The Darkroom, Hewitt takes us into the shadowy world of the crime scene photographer, and recounts remarkable tales, from murders to suicides, accidents to assassinations.
In the tradition of Unnatural Causes, When the Dogs Don't Bark and All That Remains, this is a true crime book full of the wisdom that can be found in the darkness.
A.J. Hewitt is a professionally trained photographer who spent almost a decade as a forensic photographer with New Scotland Yard. In her debut non-fiction book The Darkroom: Case Files of a Scotland Yard Forensic Photographer, she lifts the veil on a world shrouded in secrecy, until now. She takes readers on an enlightening journey into darkness, murder and mayhem. Hewitt studied photography and design at art college. She subsequently graduated (with distinction) with a Bachelor of Arts (double major) degree. Insatiably curious and a lifelong learner, she is in the final stage of completing a psychology degree. She is a voracious reader, an open water scuba diver and has travelled widely, with her cameras, on four continents. She's a storyteller at heart, whether through her camera lens or with a pencil and paper. Having spent tens of thousands of hours photographing crime scenes, and attending court as an expert witness, she brings a unique insider's perspective to her writing. She envisions turning her vast lived experience of homicides, femicides, and crime scene investigation into more books and a screenplay. Her philosophy in life is simple, be kind and laugh often. www.ajhewittauthor.com
