'Hackney Studios' is a long-termproject by East London resident and photographer, Jenny Lewis, now published by Hoxton Mini Press.

"The word 'snapshot' is usually used in a derogatory way, but it doesn't have to imply disposable or unthinking, it can be elevated beyond that."

"From a composing perspective 99% of my shots are top-down, with the drone camera perpendicular to the ground. I like how top-down shots redesign our classic perspective, forcing to compose each shot accordingly."

"Work, work, work and be nice". It's very important to me to shoot every week. It's important to improve, to constantly create."

"Even when I’m making pictures outside I try to work as though the landscape is my studio, finding graphic backgrounds and adding to the natural light with my own elements..."

"What you see is what you are. It's the identity of my subjects, but also mine. In short, photography for me is a form of knowledge, but also of personal expression."
