LGBTQ+ Faces of Bristol

I have been meeting lots of interesting people who live in Bristol and are part of the LGBTQ+ community. I have a lot more photo sessions lined up throughout August and September.

I wanted to do something to contribute to the community and have a focus for my photography. So I started reaching out across social media to see if anyone wanted to get involved. It is really exciting to see it all come together.

Thank you everyone for your support over the last few days. My post about my stolen camera has had a lot of eyes on it thanks to everyone sharing it.

I haven't heard about my cameras yet but fingers crossed they might show up at some point. In the meantime I'm still just waiting on hearing back about my insurance claim. Fingers crossed I can get cash to buy new cameras, even if they aren't the same models I had previously.

"I am part of a free womxn’s camera club in Bristol. We haven’t been a collective for very long but are starting to see more new photographers show up. At our first meeting, I spoke to a group of women who mostly shoot digital and just talking to them about my own work has encouraged them to sho...

During the build-up to International Women's Day on the 8th March, Analogue Wonderland are sharing a series of interviews called 'Female Voices in Film' to highlight some of the exceptional talent in our community.

First up is Rebecca Danese.

"To all the female photographers I’d only encourage you to find like-minded individuals who are willing to keep you at it, and who share your passion so that whenever you feel stagnated or in a creative rut, you’ve got someone to bounce ideas off and inspire you. Or, if you’ve got a problem wi...

Someone stole 3 of my cameras this morning, including a spare zoom lens all inside my wonderful Manfrotto camera bag - which was also expensive.

SADNESS.

Hopefully I can claim on my insurance but the film cameras are rare. If anyone sees any Pentax Z-1p cameras on sale let me know because I need to buy more now.
