What could be described, as 'Contemporary Street Photography' LPP is a photographic fingerprint of the 'everyday', the result of a 3-month 30sq mile odyssey around inner and greater London. Using the city’s revolutionary post code system as guide I mapped a journey across the city.

Armed with a tube map and a fixed lens disposable camera, the aim was to simply capture an idea of what defined the city at that moment, through people and place - a London largely void of the stereotypical iconography associated with it. I was not concerned with taking the 'perfect' photograph.

There was no specific visual agenda - and the rules I set myself were simple - only 3 photos in each location with each location being visited just once. I took photographs in over 50 post codes across London using the tube as my primary source of transport.

The resulting images build a unique photo essay on this amazing city.

Decisions on what I’d photograph were made on the spot, as all locations were site unseen. London is a city with an unprecedented amount of surveillance directed towards its 8million plus population, so it was fair to say there was at times, a little unease towards the camera. Ironically i wanted to create a sense of informality and comfort by using a disposable camera.

However, the project isn't all about people. Environment and object became key themes as patterns began to emerge through shape, light and colour. A watchful Christ bears over a deserted north London cemetery; a few paces outside 2 white surgical gloves lay coiled on the ground.
