Maya Simeon
Maya was a member of Crisis and had several winning photos in the MYLONDON contest between 2013 and 2018.
Angel Kid, Shoreditch. This shot was taken in Shoreditch, one of Maya Simeon’s favourite parts of the city, “I’m always there. My model is Jonathan, the son of two of my best friends. He’s five years old. It’s such a sweet age: full of curiosity and still so innocent. You hear that old adage never work with kids, but because he’s my little buddy, making him smile and laugh for the photo wasn’t an issue. I had a vision for capturing this spot, but when we arrived I realised he wasn’t tall enough to fit the wings, so had to find something to add a bit of height. I asked around eventually managed to borrow this mini step ladder which was perfect.”
