Kenopsia
Have you ever wondered what happens to buildings or places once humans have deserted it. Or what is behind the "Do not enter" signs ?
I had the same curiosity and wanted to know the stories behind these buildings and places. Over the last 6 years I have had the opportunity to explore all over the United Kingdom and into Europe visiting some truly unique and amazing locations to get a glimpse in to their past..
These places are filled with history of a forgotten life and time, now all that is left is dust, mold and the signs of nature reclaiming its land.
This is the first image from my DIMENTICATO series based on the subject of shooting derelict italian architecture
Over the course of the last 6 years i have found a passion for shooting urban architecture, mainly abandoned buildings around the UK and Europe. Many people would never see these buildings and I love capturing the beauty of these places after they have being left to the elements for years and the decay that has set in. These places just fascinate me and I feel that each and every one has their own story to tell and i hope that this comes across in my photography.
Over the last couple of years I've also been shooting Portraits, its a form of photography that has always fascinated me, so i thought id turn my hand to it, i love the coming together of the photographer and model and creating something awesome.
My passion is a fine-art style using big-dresses when portraits. Sometimes i try and combine the Urban locations with the Portraits. Lately I've also been shooting lingerie and implied style, this is a new style for me but one I'm enjoying and will continue to add this to my portfolio
