Inspired by
Humans of New York, I began the
Humans of Greater London (
HoGL) project as a Facebook page in December 2013. In late 2015 I was offered a publishing deal by MoM Books, joined by fellow HOGLers Richard Kaby and Trisha O'Neill, and in October 2016 our first
Humans of London book - a vivid, heartful celebration of real life in this beacon of a capital city - was released. You can order your copy from Waterstones
here, or Amazon
here, and
here's the link to our ongoing Facebook page.
London is such a huge, multi-cultural and multi-faceted place that we keep expanding the team to do it ever more justice. If you're a good photographer, are happy to talk to strangers, have a passion for humanity and would like to join our 'HoGLing' team, just email me via the Contact page, along with some examples of your portrait-with-quoted-words and/or your classic candid shots of London life.
You can also support the continued growth of the
HoGL project by buying limited edition prints of classic London scenes
here, and/or by volunteering to help with things like admin, event organising and project promotion.
