The City

A documentary-style street photography series capturing spontaneous, everyday moments across Manchester and beyond. From quiet alleyways to the blur of a crowd, these images observe the poetic rhythm of urban life—where architecture, light, and fleeting gestures converge. Rooted in curiosity, The City reflects on how we move through, shape, and are shaped by the spaces around us.
