Herbert cites his influences as street photography pioneer Henri Cartier-Bresson, veteran documentary photographer Charlie Phillips and the celebrated photojournalist Don McCullin. He says: “I take pictures because I want to show the world about life and the things that you may not see, things that we take for granted. I see moments, the light, an image, a person, a reflection. I experiment by using and processing old film to see what might happen to the image. I capture people in a moment of their lives.”
He adds that Sandwell College was the springboard for his new career direction as it gave him the opportunity to work with Magnum photographers and his lecturers gave him the confidence to go to university.
