Documenting Britain

Featuring DANI BROWN Life Observations / Documenting Family Featuring @xdani.brownx Brighton and Hove, East Sussex, U.K, 2015-2021. Dani is working on her first photobook zine which will be released in 2022! 💥 ——————————————————————————————— Dani is drawn to light, shadows, patterns and colour, the subtle moments of life, slices of time. Her photographs are of her direct lived experience, close familiar domestic interiors, family members, friends and her Chihuahua, who is her constant companion. The photos are a portrait of her family but also form a self portrait. She didn’t initially set out with the intention to document her family, but always having her camera with her and always looking at her immediate environment it’s something that’s naturally happened and developed over time. I’ve followed her photography for a few years, which she shares on Instagram and talk to her about photography and life. I’ve noticed a theme and connections, an overall picture is forming. Abstract pictures representing the people and places closest to her. Family home life in Brighton. @chloejuno ——————————————————————————————— Thank you @bleckmann_andreasbleckmann for your fantastic portraits! 📸 ——————————————————————————————— #documentingbritain - thank you to all of you who continue to submit and support DB. Documenting Britain is a creative response to the British Isles by documentary photographers whose collective purpose is to deliver a critical record of the islands on which we live. #lifenow #homelife #documentingbritain #documentingfamily

NEW FEATURE’Rock-A-Nore’ @bleckmann_andreasbleckmann Kitty, June, 2020. ————————————————————— Andreas Bleckmann, born in Münster, Germany 1960. He studied business and visual communication from 1978-82, from there he moved to Berlin, finally settling in New York in 1984. He worked as an interior painter & decorator to support his personal street scene photography & became a photographer’s assistant from 1989-95. In addition to his street photography, Bleckmann developed his portrait style before moving to London in 1996 where he shot for editorial clients Including The Face Magazine, Travel and Leisure, Interview, New York Times Magazine, Libération, Süddeutsche Zeitung, Vogue, GQ and many others.  In 2017 Andreas moved to Hastings, where he started an in-depth series of street portraits recording the people he encounters in and around Rock-A-Nore Road. This short stretch of road, no longer than 500 meters, divides the Old Town from The Stade, Britain’s oldest and largest beach landing fishing harbour, where boats have worked for more than a thousand years. Flanked by distinctive black fishing huts, local fish traders and smokeries, restaurants, galleries and a carpark, the road ends with the dramatic cliff faced, rocky beach that wraps around the coastline towards Fairlight. These photographs are shot with natural light, in square format which is the perfect proportion to show the subject and just enough of this remarkable environment.  #documentingbritain - thank you to all of you who continue to submit and support DB.
