Contemporary / Street Photography

"The pictures are there, and you just take them.”

Robert Capa

Locations below include London, Halifax, Leeds, Manchester and Nottingham. Whilst telling a story myContemporary photography is firmly entrenched within ‘street’ photography, much of it works better in high contract black and white.
