About
Deal is a small, bustling, seaside town on the eastern edge of Kent, facing the English Channel.
The town has an incredibly rich history, a vibrant music and artistic scene and more than its fair share of interesting and colourful characters.
I enjoy photographing people. I decided on a project to provide an insight into the life of the town by making portraits of people who frequent its streets.

I don't photograph people without their permission. I prefer a collaborative approach.
