Elephant and Castle Stroll // by sophie green

I came across 'Walworth Garden Farm' a local charity and social enterprise that provides training, education and services in sustainable horticulture for the local community. Here are a few portraits I took of the lovely people including Kim and Tracey that worked there.

Liverpool // by sophie green

These were taken in Toxteth, a suburb of Liverpool, a pretty sad and lonely place. There were rows and rows of abandoned houses that were all vandalised, abandoned and became derelict during the riots that took place in Toxteth in 1981. Every window of the houses are either bricked up or covered in steel sheeting. Very occasionally I would come across signs of life such as a parked car, even a brothel/ drug den and this beautiful girl who was playing with her brothers and sisters in the street.

Portrait // Shannell, Sheffield. by sophie green

I met Shannell on the street in Sheffield. I asked to take her picture, she took me on a tour around Sheffield and showed me a few estates where one of my favourite films, 'This Is England' directed by Shane Meadows was made. This portrait I took of Shannell was taken outside one of the blocks where a scene from This Is England was filmed.
