My name is Emily Norton-Pickering and I’m 19 years old. I’m based in Leicester and have lived here my whole life, but have dreams about moving to Brighton as I find the city so creative and would be amazing to photograph.

I’ve been doing photography since the age of 12 but only started it professionally a year ago, in March 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic. I didn’t think much would happen but the support I was given was insane and I’ve met so many lovely people throughout my journey.

I cannot wait to keep on carrying out my passion for everyone around me and keep capturing memories that will never be forgotten.
