Wayne Waterson | Hackney, 1970s-80s
Photographs from the archive of photographer and director Wayne Waterson.
“In the late 1980s I applied to do a photography course. I had no idea if I would be excepted but I had nerve, a big mouth, and confidence, and talked my way into a foundation course at The London College of Printing. I later went on to study film and have been a Casting Director for the past 38 years.”

“I began taking photos at the age of 14 and loved it for the sense of freedom it gave me, I also idolised David Bailey for he was a working class kid who had made it and made something out of himself.” – Wayne Waterson.
