Theme - surface


Last week I went along to another Illuminate meet up and photowalk.

This one was over in Aldeburgh, and we were given the theme ‘Surface’.


These meet ups are always really lovely, super chilled evenings. I wasn’t feeling overly social for this one, but I knew I could just show up as I was, mooch about taking photos, and chat if I wanted to. As always, they were a lovely group and it was really nice to just get out and about with other creatives and see what caught my eye.


Mikaela had also set us a little additional challenge for the evening of shooting with a film mindset, and consciously only taking 36 exposures.. As expected - this went out the window pretty early on in the evening for me! Ha ha! 


We finished the evening with a few of us enjoying some chips, and then we all went for a drink in the pub.


I’ve added a few of the images I took during the photowalk below.
