Documentary Photography: Who is Robert Law?

How’s it going Rob? Thanks for agreeing to speak to me, as usual could you just introduce yourself please?

Hi Math and thanks for inviting me on your blog.

1 - Fuck rules and what other people tell you.

Street Photography Q&A With An A-Level Photography Student

September 30, 2020

Recently I was fortunate enough to put on an exhibition at Volcano Theatre on the High Street in Swansea. This was an ideal venue for me as most of my “better” photographs over the last four years were taken there. I also released a 24 image zine to coincide with this.

An A-Level photography student from Coleg Gwent who was researching street photography bought a copy of my zine and contacted me on Instagram with a few questions, here is the dialogue…
