ABOUT ME

I am a freelance photographer and artist living and working in the North of England. My passion for photography began at the age of 16, I would often be seen carrying my first camera, an Olympus Trip as advertised on TV by none other than David Bailey, a camera I still use on occasion to this day. I remain passionate about film photography and although I can be seen regularly clutching one of several film cameras in my possession, I have also added digital to my portfolio, as well as video equipment, used in the production of short films published on https://vimeo.com/user62574946

​

I also write regular articles on my blog  https://grahamfranklinblog.wordpress.com

​

I am a member of Map Collective.  We are a group of four photographers who met whilst studying for our MA in photography. We photograph and write about the Anthropocene. News and events can be found at;
