Friendly photos of neighbours in St George

By Lowie Trevena  Tuesday Apr 28, 2020

A photographer in St George has been taking photos of the people living on her street.

Ashleigh Payne, a 22-year-old photojournalist started the project because she wanted to keep up her passion during the lockdown, while keeping to the government guidelines.

“I was inspired by the sense of community on our little road here in St George,” Ashleigh explains.

Independent journalism
is needed now More than ever
Keep our city's journalism independent.

“I wanted to get to know my neighbours more, make sure they were okay and chat about their experiences so far, even if that meant from two metres away.”
