A collaborative project with the Reno regulars, a group of Mancunians who used to hang out at the Mosside club in their youth. After a series of interviews and discussions with the regulars, these are some plots from our final shoot interpreting their experience at the 70s club.

I was on the direction team for our second year fashion show 'Curiously Curious'. My role was creative direction and set design. Loosely based on the Mad Hatter's tea party in Alice in Wonderland, this show was an exhibition of the second year Fashion Design students garments at Manchester School of Art.

A project exploring British youth culture, taking photographs with pinhole camera's that I hand made from items I found on nights out in Manchester. I thought it would be a nice idea to create new memories with old memories. I spent a lot of time in the darkroom for this project, making different lenses for my pinhole camera from a variety of objects and testing for hours. The results were mostly obsqure, perfectly embodying the alcahol induced haze these objects were abandoned in. The styling was inspired by interesting charaters I saw around Manchester, created with mundane objects. The final images are displayed next to the object they were shot with. Directed, styled & shot by me.

ANEMOIA
This editorial is based on ‘Anemoia’, which is the word used to describe having nostalgia for a time you’ve never known. We all romanticize past eras and claim we were born in the wrong generation, but completely gloss over the fact that life would of been much harder, especially for women. We’re looking at it through rose tinted glasses. Yeah past eras have cooler clothes and funner hair, but what about human rights? Taking inspiration from a handful of different eras that are romanticized all the way back to Marie Antoinette 1700s, the mash up styling is based off things women weren’t allowed to do until this century. Whilst drenched in nostalgia, I want the shoot to be a celebration of how far we’ve come.
