"Folklore" shoot

Lovely theme, beautiful styling

Vashti

I wish I could have been the photographer of this image, it's such a wonderful scene. I am fascinated with folk art, culture and music and often daydream of a life such as this.

English folk singer, Vashti Bunyan travelled by horse and cart.

I'd like less restrictions in my life.

Photographs taken by myself

It has taken me a year to develop these images.

I think I was a little frightened about getting these photographs processed - I tend to point...hold my breath...then click. I never really know how things will turn out, I never really plan a picture. I like to click when i'm moved by something, perhaps I try to capture the atmosphere of the moment, the mood and the feel. I like quirky defects within photographs and I believe that my ignorance towards photography science works well.

These four photographs are incredibly poignant; they take me back to a time of my life where feelings were strong, where actions spoke louder than words, where friendships were built and secrets were shared.
