I'm Joseph Rossi — a photographer based in the Surrey Hills and a regular on London's streets, shooting in Leytonstone 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.
Wanstead Flats at dawn, Hollow Ponds, Francis Road's village feel — my old neighbourhood. 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.
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.
