Megan Taylor exhibition
May I bring to your attention a photography exhibition that starts tomorrow night. The photographer in question is my friend Meg. We work together sometimes on stories we’re both interested in.
She’s great. Much braver at knocking on doors than me, and much more charming. Photographing the residents of post-war prefab Excalibur Estate in Catford, the bloke she was photographing turned to me mid-shot and said, “Isn’t she lovely?” Indeed she is, and her way with people puts her subjects at ease, enabling her to capture something true about each of them.
The pictures above are from a story she did on first-time fathers, another on ‘assistants’ and a third about Irish exiles. The picture at the top is from the first job we did together, visiting a wartime renenactment weekend. If you’re in Forest Hill in the next couple of months then do pop in to the lovely St David’s Coffee House to see her work.
I shall try to get someone to take me there for a coffee and a look at the photos in a couple of weekend’s time.
Ooooh, thanks for the info. I loved the photographs in the Excalibur Estate piece and live just up the road, so will definitely drop in.
