I'm Joseph Rossi — a photographer based in Leytonstone, East London, shooting in Leyton and the surrounding area on 35mm film. Portrait shoots, couples photography, family sessions, dog photography, event coverage and brand imagery for small businesses — all made with real film, honest light and no studio stiffness.
Next door to home. Leyton Marsh and the River Lea, Francis Road's village feel, the Bakers Arms bustle and the Olympic Park a short walk south — big skies and honest streets in equal measure. Knowing the area means we skip the scouting and go straight to the good light — I'll suggest spots and times that suit the shoot you're after.
Ten minutes from home.
Photographs from my gallery are also available as archival prints.
Film slows a shoot down in the best way. Thirty-six considered frames instead of eight hundred identical ones; colours and grain that feel warm and human straight off the negative. If you've been putting off a photoshoot because it all feels a bit stiff and corporate — this is the other kind.
