LONDON

Walking the streets of London with a camera I’ve wanted since 2017 (Leica M6), felt like I was in a dream, even tho I knew the dream would end soon because of the length of my stay. Photographing London wasn’t just about architecture or iconic backdrops — it was about people in motion, the spaces they inhabit, and the subtle moments that make each street unique. Walking those streets with a camera was about listening.

 

What stood out most was how human London feels at street level. Commuters moving with purpose, street vendors setting up for the day. The photographs aren’t just records of what was there, but reflections of how it felt to be there.

 

Hosting the Where Art Meets Black Photowalk added another dimension to the experience. Walking alongside photographers of different backgrounds and skill levels reminded me that photography is as much about conversation as it is about observation. There’s something powerful about moving through a city together with cameras. It changes your confidence. You begin to notice what others notice, and in doing so, you expand your own way of looking.

 

London, with all its history and constant motion, became the perfect backdrop for that kind of experience. Photographing it on film and sharing that process with a community reinforced why I continue to shoot the way I do. This wasn’t just a trip or an event. It was a reminder that street photography is rooted in curiosity, patience, and respect — and that when we walk together, we see more. The streets always have something to say. You just have to be willing to film.
