I’ve been using my daily bike ride to swing past friend’s homes & capture moments on their doorsteps and ask what love means to them in this time.
Annie is loving having time to look after herself better. “And this doorstep. I’ve been here 30 years”

I asked Tais to bring something she loved to her balcony and she brought out her Mum and her son.

I cycled past Louie but I doubled back as he looked so chilled.
“What’s the thing you love most about isolation?”
“The sunshine.”
Even inside our hearts are outside.

“I just want the whole world to know how much I love them. That’s what I keep chanting about about. I really do. And Flo loves them too. I want to heal the whole world with this love.”

Yesterday I spend four hours getting groceries for neighbours. After my last drop off I paused to take another picture for my #LoveInATimeOfIsolation #DoorstepPortraits project.
This little project is giving me life right now. It’s just really human.

Little Elliayana was born a few weeks before lockdown. You may recall I did her Mum’s pregnancy shoot and newborn shoot. Today I popped by to say hello and see if they needed anything.

Mandi asked me to come and take her picture and when she came to her gate we found this #ThankYouNHS chalk. Ellen did a jump for her portrait. Not to be outdone, Mandi pulled a wheelie.

When I got a shout from old @selsistersuncut activist mate @Aviah_Sarah_Day who shared an idea for a #mutualaid group as a response to COVID, I knew this time we’d needed community more than ever. She let me take her portrait for #LoveInATimeOfIsolation

When @SophiaGrene sent me a really lovely message about my pictures the other day, I noticed she was local to me, so I offered to take some photos on her doorstep.

“People keep talking about families in flats, but I love my flat. It’s way bigger than my last place. I know people mean well but I love it & think we’re lucky & the boys are happy and healthy and that’s what is important to me.”

These are two folk I’m most looking forward to hugging & sharing food with again. @WanjiKelbert & @KingKreol are two of the most dedicated open hearted activist folk I’ve ever met. When I decided to do a project about love, they were who I was thinking of.

I’ve been asking folk to bring something they love to their doorstep, most bring partners or kids.
Jean brought her son Adam, who died in 1987.
“I don’t talk to the picture. I don’t need to. He’s everywhere.”

I’ve been chatting to @PrincessofVP on here for years and she’s always been really supportive of photography. I knew she was local, so it felt only right to see if she wanted to be part of my #DoorstopPortraits project. She’s loving her shared garden.

Hani brought her Mum @Anita_Vasisht to the picture as the thing she loved. Lila says the thing she loves is tea but she didn’t think that would be appropriate.

Nick is one of those mates I drop a message to every 18 months & it feels like we’re mid-conversation. He spoke about how hard it is being a school teacher on zoom & holding the space the kids need. And how much he loves his family. #LoveInATimeOfIsolation

In case you’re worried I’m getting too close to people, I hope this little set shoes that my zoom is just really deceptive.

Nia is feeling a bit upset that she thinks no one can see her rainbow because her flat is up so high and it’s quite small, so I thought maybe you’d like to tell her how good her colouring in is.

This is the first lot to go all out when I asked them to bring something they loved to the doorstep. We have the supply of compost I am envious of, plants, vinyl, basketball, and of course, wine.

The kids take it in turns to do Ann’e shopping but Nick does most of the cooking. He takes a photo of what their Mum is going to eat before delivering it and pops it on whattsapp for the sisters to judge.

I’m trying to get folk to talk about what they love in lockdown, but @Stephenwalrond is bored. He’s watched too many films, played too many computer games, read too many books. He‘s missing variety. It’s got so bad he’s going to make a sourdough starter.

It was the first time the kids had been out of the flat all day and they definitely were not interested in posing for a photo with me, so this one turned into a little video.

Aaaand folks, I think that’s about it. Nearly every day since the middle of April I’ve cycled to someone to take a photo of them on their doorstep. I tried to add a bit of outside to your lockdown. If you’ve enjoyed them maybe you’d like to buy my a cuppa. ko-fi.com/heardinlondon
Also, two and a half months of posting every day and not one of you pointed out it is “Love in THE time of cholera” not “Love in A time of cholera”.
Shame on you, pedants.
Shame on you.

I have just under 30 days left of being in my 30s so I thought I would start a list of things this decade has taught me.

The first one is:
"Do you really need to buy another tub if hummus? Or should you check in the fridge first?"

#30SomeThings
A quick disruption to an anxiety or panic attack can be achieved by researching something trivial you are curious about. The brain simply cannot process panic and learn.
I like to research how mice steal eggs, for example.
But you chose your own random curiosity.
#30SomeThings
Not asking for things does not mean you are less of a burden, it means people do not know what you want.

I had a really interesting chat with an elder on an East London estate this evening about #SeriousYouthViolence
(hat tip to @akalamusic for pointing out the power of the words we hang over the heads of our young people).
1/?
He was looking very dapper, and I gave him a compliment on his suit, and he sighed and said the kid he took to court this morning got 7 years. And the one this afternoon from his block got 2 years. That’s the difference between guns and knives he said.
2/?
