#8 and 9 Emma and Jack

So… I’ve now been reunited with the exposed film I left in my mum’s fridge in Sydney.

I photographed Emma and Jack at their respective homes in Brisbane’s suburbs. They moved out to Oz with their parents in around… must have been 1990-ish. Before that, they lived around the corner from my dad’s house in Crouch End, where I lived for half of the week (the other half in sunny Wood Green). We hung out in Stationer’s Park, and went to Woodcraft Folk.

I loved catching up with them again, having only seen them one other time in the intervening years. I was struck by how similar they are now to how I remember them when we were kids. I guess time doesn’t change our basic natures, which must be pretty well established by our teenage years.
