What if you never come down? The 90s clubbers who wouldn’t let the night end – a picture essay


In the late 1990s, Mischa Haller began taking pictures of British nightlife during the hours after the clubs had shut – from drunken revellers scoffing pizza to ravers blissed out on the beach

Haller liked the capital so much that he ended up moving there, getting a job shooting clubbers for “ladette” magazine Minx, a sort of female version of Loaded. Haller sent his images to Paul Wright at the British Culture Archive, which not only showcases excellent amateur photography, but also shines a light on previously unsung professionals, such as Tish Murtha. Some people in the book have already been in touch to say it’s them in the photo – the blond guy from the Brighton beach pictures thought it was fantastic, and one of the girls from the Birmingham McDonald’s shoot also recognised herself from the Instagram post.
