I’m Leah, a London-based photographer and 2025 BA (Hons) Photography graduate from the University of Brighton, UK. My fine art practice explores identity, relationships, and culture, drawing on my Jamaican heritage and South-East London roots. Alongside my personal projects, I keep an ever-growing visual archive of the moments, colours, and small curiosities that catch my eye, embracing a fluid approach that isn’t limited to one style or subject.
I also take on commissioned and collaborative work, from events and concept shoots to freelance assignments, bringing the same creativity and vibrant storytelling that runs through my fine art practice into everything I create. I’m always open to collaborations, commissions, and new ideas.
