Street Photography in London – Brutalist Architecture at the Barbican

🎬 Street Photography in London – Brutalist Architecture at the Barbican
Brutalism, memories, and monochrome — a personal walk through the concrete lines of London.

In this video, I return to the streets of London’s Barbican — one of the city’s most iconic brutalist structures — to explore light, shape, and narrative through street photography.

For me, this wasn’t just a shoot. It was a reconnection with my early student days, walking the city with a camera, letting the architecture guide the composition. I often use these walks as recces for future editorial shoots — blending street photography, architecture, and fashion to shape new ideas.

This is monochrome street photography as I see it: honest, observational, and deeply personal.

📸 What You’ll See in This Video
✅ London street photography with a minimalist eye
✅ Brutalist architecture through a fashion photographer’s lens
✅ Observational moments, shadow play, and architectural framing
✅ Monochrome shooting style – deep contrast and mood
✅ The Barbican estate as a creative playground

🎯 For photographers who want to:
• Build a monochrome street portfolio
• Learn to see light and geometry in the everyday
• Scout locations for fashion/editorial photography
• Explore architecture through a creative lens
