'Covid-19. Time stands still for most of us. It is a sensitive time, we all feel vulnerable and anxious. Many self-isolate.

I have photographed people in my area of West London in self-isolation at home. People participate so enthusiastically that I feel I am giving them something to look forward to and break the monotony of their current existence. I shoot in the evening for the twilight feel, Thursdays are special as I can join with them in our clapping tribute to our precious NHS. No physical contact is made. They stand at their windows and we communicate through the window with hand signals or by phone. My twelve year old son Finn helps me carry the lighting. We set it up and a few poses later the shoot is over. I also interview each person I photograph in an informal way'
