About the Creator
We are Kate Denman and Amy Coppins, two English girls with a love of photography and a fascination for the world. We have a great passion for meeting people and hearing their stories, which has taken us down the unusual route of teaching photography to young people whose voices are often not expressed, or given a platform upon which to be heard.
