I really enjoyed listening back to this one, as Tami has been in the space for the past 2 years and I remember visiting when they first moved and you could feel the excitement of a group of young photographers & designers all working alongside each other.

I spent a short hour with Tami at her shared studio space aka ‘Plant Face Studios‘ in Peckham. She graduated from LCC in 2020 & has quickly made her mark on the photography world in the past four years. Her work can be seen in magazines, online and recently in a collaborative book with her dad exploring memory and her Pakistani heritage.

"Tami Aftab is an English-Pakistani photographer based in London. Her work touches on subjects of intimacy, family, identity, and play."
