The Shepherds Bush Market is an hundred years old street market and historical landmark within the West London community.
 
Intrigued by the vibrancy and multicultural dimension of this community of traders, many of whom have been here for generations, this project examines the social history of the market through a comparison between the present and the past of the market and some long-serving traders.
 
For this project, I have asked the people portrayed to let me have an old photograph of them made at the market, in order to compare “Now and Then”. Old photographs, either from the traders or from the archive, are displayed on the right hand side.
 
Shots were taken during Winter/Spring 2017.
