OUT AND ABOUT – DECEMBER 2024
We’re back with another round-up from some seriously talented local photographers.
We’re on the ground in Liverpool with Anthony Wilde, Florintine, Halima Abdallah and Hana Haxhifazliu as we check out what musical happenings they’ve captured recently.
Anthony Wilde is a Liverpool-based photographer known for documenting cultural and working-class subcultures, with a distinct emphasis on music, art, and fashion and their impact on British culture. His work captures the vibrancy and resilience of often-overlooked groups, offering a compelling narrative that highlights the intersections of identity, heritage, and societal influence. Through his lens, Wilde explores themes of community and cultural fusion, creating images that celebrate diversity and the enduring contributions of Liverpool’s culture to the British social landscape.

Florintine has been documenting Liverpool’s music scene since the age of nineteen, capturing the raw energy that bands like Alright(Okay) deliver every time they take the stage. Their photography goes beyond simply showcasing performers; it brings to life the electrifying spirit of the city’s music scene. Through their lens, Florentine conveys the excitement and vibrancy that make Liverpool a hub for creativity and live music.

Halima is a 20-year-old freelance photographer based in Liverpool. While photography has always been a passion, it was only in April of this year that she fully embraced it as a way to express what words cannot. Halima primarily focuses on photographing music events in the city, capturing the energy and diversity of Liverpool’s vibrant music scene. Her true passion, however, lies in fashion photography, inspired by how people use clothing as a form of self-expression—a quality she also finds in music events. Having studied media production in college, Halima discovered her love for photography and gravitated towards it as the perfect medium to tell the stories she wants to share.

Hana is a 21-year-old photographer currently studying graphic design in London. Having taken up photography just over a year ago, she has embraced every moment of capturing scenes of happiness and joy, as well as artistic editorial fashion. Through her work, Hana aims to create a fun, nostalgic atmosphere, showcasing bright colours and dynamic frames of motion. She draws inspiration from the vibrant energy of city life and the subtleties of everyday moments, continually seeking to explore new themes and push the boundaries of her creativity.
Hana’s passion for photography began as a hobby with 35mm cameras, inspired by her parents, who ran a photography shop in Kosovo before moving to Liverpool. Transitioning to digital photography, she connected with a community of creative individuals who motivated her to develop her skills further. Since then, Hana has been dedicated to pushing her photography practice to new heights.
