I have always always wanted to take photographs of strangers on the street, but with their permission. I'm not into the whole "street photography" aesthetic of snapping people without them noticing. I'd rather have a conversation & have the photo be a collaborative effort. But - I am a coward. A huge coward. I find it very difficult to approach people and explain why I want a photograph of them.

Brixton Sports and Social Club. The day we were viewing our house, before we moved in, someone was murdered here and the whole place was cordoned off, with dudes in white body suits standing around. MURDAH
