My name is Simone and I am a photographer based in Manchester who specialises in portraits, however; I am constantly refining my style and gravitate towards mediums that inspire me from anime and music, to the shapes created in dancing and nature.

 Photography is my form of a visual diary. Capturing portraits of people, places and plants allows me to create a tangible memory of my feelings in that moment.

I find that communicating in this visual style gives me more freedom to express a variety of messages at once, such as, exploring identity, spirituality, and the fluidity of the human form.

I began taking self-portraits when I was a teenager, which helps me to reflect on my intersectionality and document my growth.

I hope to empower others to be their authentic self. The more time I invest in myself, the more I have found the courage to go for my dream of exhibiting my photography.
