SUMMARY
Photographer Glenn Røkeberg's project, "Trusted Guardians: Inside the Mounted Regiment," offers an intimate look at the individuals serving in Britain's oldest army regiment. Moving beyond the ceremonial uniforms, Røkeberg used a Nikon Z8 and a Hasselblad film camera to capture the soldiers' daily lives and personal stories. The decision to shoot predominantly in black and white strips away the iconic colors, focusing instead on the human element and individual identities within the disciplined military unit. The photobook is dedicated to Captain Elizabeth Helen Godwin, who Røkeberg deeply respected for her sense of duty.
