  • A Few shots of East London

    Using *just* expired film (my bad) the colours didn’t develop fully, but to me it gives it a vintage, or even timeless, feel to the photo, which I always find to be a fun quality of using a Polaroid camera. (This one looks better in real life I swear, makes me think I need to find a…

  • Victoria Park, London

    After a stressful Sunday morning of my phone suddenly dying on me and wondering how I could ever live without it, I decided to wander around Victoria Park in London to take photos and to relax.

Perhaps even more so when you move to East London, and although they never said anything, your parents are petrified for your life. It’s not as scary as it may seem, and I think moving…

Being a student on a budget my wardrobe consists mostly of Primark, accompanied by cheap market finds or what I found when spending too long on eBay. It ranges from band…

  • My First Polaroid

    I have not taken many good Polaroid photos, but my first one is one of my favourites. Immediately after developing it looked like something recovered from 30 years ago, or as all photos are, something timeless that is forever in the past.
