Photo's by Louise Topp

I was given my first camera when I was fourteen and I have never looked back since. I see photography ans capturing a lost world, not just for fashion and glamour.  I believe it's important to capture and record the past before it's gone for good, we have a duty to have something to show our future generations.

I'm very interested in WW1 photography, because they had the courage to get out there and get those image's even through they knew they could be wounded, or even killed for it.   Names to look out for are: 

Ernest Brooks (1878- 1936).

They were self taught as am I, I put everything down to experience trial and error.   I am very much into history being photographed and there are some fantastic images to be had throughout the years, including images from WW2, Vietnam and more (although I never took those).  Thank you for looking at my photo's, all of them are copyrighted.
