Skaters

Time to start a new project I feel.


I had reason to photograph my son in the studio the other weekend. As we finished, a bunch of his mates arrived so they could all shuffle off to other parts of central Manchester variously carrying, riding and falling off their boards.


There was a lovely sense of freedom, freshness and energy about this group and I decided I wanted to photograph each of them. Time didn't allow me to take it further on the day so, in a effort to not let the idea slide, I have turned it into a wider personal work project.


If anyone knows anyone who may be interested in participating then get in touch. So far I'm just thinking of very simple portraits taken at my Northern Quarter studio but who knows.. these thing have a habit of taking on a life of their own.
