Two generations behind the lens
My love of photography began with my father, Alfie. His photographs captured working life, London streets and moments that might otherwise have been forgotten.
​
This collection brings together pictures from his archive and photographs I’ve taken over the years—from classic cars and historic places to quiet landscapes and everyday details.
​
Each photograph has its own story. My father’s work is credited separately, alongside my own photography under the name Charlie Poole.
