UK Documentary Photographer - Sussex Morris Dancers
Photographing traditional and often long-forgotten cultural events and festivals is something photographers like me love to document. These local traditions vary from region to region and, often here in the UK, are specific to a county, town or even a village.

On this photo assignment, I photograph the fishermen of Spain.

VE Day 70th Anniversary - Residents In Southsea Portsmouth Recreate A VE Day Street Party To Remember
The 8th of May 2015 marked the 70th Anniversary of VE Day (Victory in Europe Day) and the end of the second world war in Europe. Many of the services and events were held in London, however local communities were also encouraged to take part. Remembering the old black and white photographs taken at the time I wanted to document a community street party for myself and so I headed along the coast to Portsmouth in Hampshire to see if I could find one.
