I love discovering new photographers. I discovered 20-year old American photographer Olivia Bee on i-D magazines Facebook post. She started her career aged 14, Bee was dicovered on Flickr by Converse who invited her to shoot their upcoming campaign (so lucky!) Her work has also been used in campaigns for Nike and Fiat.
She has an exhbition in New York (too far to visit for me!) called 'Kids in Love', 21st June - 26th July.
"Kids In Love" consists of colour and black & white photographs that Olivia has taken of friends and people she loves, the photos are captured through her eyes.
"These photos are optimistic even when they're sad. Everything feels like the end and the beginning of the world when you're 16 years old" - Olivia Bee.
I love this style, it's natural, fun and it's capturing your friends, one of the best subjects!
If you can, I would recommend checking out this exhibition.
