Hello, I am Will. I am a cycle courier (in London) but when i am not doing that I like to take photographs. Not another one you're probably thinking and who can blame you? Anyway I want to do a whole bunch of portraits of non-couriers who ride fixed. I am, sadly, old enough to remember when riding fixed was seen almost as some kind of perversion so it's nice to see so many other people going gearless. The pics would be nothing too fancy or time consuming, outdoors wherever and whenever would be best for you. 10-15 minutes would be enough. Just you and your bike wearing whatever you like and smiling/scowling/grimacing/yawning as you see fit.
For this project to work I need plenty of people so I hope many many of you will want to take part. Quite understand if you don't; I have said no to plenty of snappers wanting to photograph couriers over the years. But if you don't ask you don't get so if you are at all interested please get in touch. I am also leaving calling cards on bikes I see parked up so if you get one on your bike it's from me.
Thanks for listening. will
