Photography Roxy Lee

Roxy Lee is born and raised in Hackney in east London. She’s known for her candid ‘inside out’ portraits of the underground. 

“The two people in the picture are good friends of mine, so it means something to me in that sense – there’s an emotional connection. I just think it looks quite joyous. It wasn’t staged, it was spontaneous. It was taken at Glastonbury last year, in the crowd watching Diana Ross and I just snapped a quick photo because it was happening. I guess that’s just what I do.
