“Be Right On” Photos from my time in Brighton.
“Be Right On” Photos from my time in Brighton.

From 2005 until 2013, the funky seaside town of Brighton was my home. It’s a pretty full-on, eccentric place, with a lot going on, and I lived right in the thick of it, initially next to the crumbling West Pier, then on the edge of hedonistic Kemptown.

I took so many pictures of Brighton life in my 8 years there and I have compiled them into the personal project “Be Right On”. Below is a selection of some images that didn’t make the cut, but I thought would serve as some fun bonus content, enjoy!
