I'm happy to announce that I sold my street photography image 'Paris' at the London Photo Festival yesterday. The buyer said they loved it and looked forward to hanging it in their new home :-)

We Shoot People Group at the London Photo Festival

In collaboration with the London Photo Festival, I hosted a We Shoot People - Street Photography Group walk in and around London Bridge / Borough Market. Followed by a social networking night at the Click N' Clique evening at LPF later that evening. We extended the evening for more socialising at the Blue Eyed Maid pub in London Bridge. Thanks to the landlord for his hospitality!

All in all, a very successful and busy night for both new and regular members of the group to interact, discuss and exchange ideas on all things street photography.

I'm pleased to announce that the 'Black And White Street Group' book, 1st edition, is finally here and available in soft cover and hard cover!



As one of the group administrators, I helped in the choosing of the final featured photos used in the book. There is a page feature on some of my work in there also.

Overall it is a great book filled with some very talented international street photographers and a great publication for any photography fan.

Black And White Street Group book can be purchased direct from Blurb: http://www.blurb.co.uk/b/5196251-black-and-white-street-group

News just in.....

My 'Soho Rain' photo came 3rd in the overall public voting at the London Photo Festival exhibition this week!



The 'Spotlight' image was also in the top 12!




I believe there were approximately 55 exhibitors taking part and 145 images on display. It was a very successful exhibition, Emma Mapp and Kit Shah the co-founders as always do a great job in organising this event. Big thanks to them for their time and effort. The next event is in May 2014 and the theme is..... 'Street Photography'! They are taking bookings now.

Good news! One of my favourite taken shots 'Soho Rain' sold at the London Photo Festival today! When I asked the purchaser what they liked about the photo, they said "There's something about the photo that takes me to a happy place".

If you are interested in a signed (framed or unframed) 16" x 12" print of 'Soho Rain' please get in touch: info@lindawisdomphotography.co.uk

Emerging Photographers

Back from my week in Paris, which was a guest invitation trip to John Free's Paris Workshops. Fantastic city, great weather (apart from last day of rain!), though typically wonderful for street photography, I could get used to Parisian life... but home in London calls me for now!

Check out the Paris gallery for forthcoming images.

Au revoir!

Its an honour to have been asked to be a contest judge for award.io.
