See you at our next fair on Saturday 29th August 2026

A Photographer’s Eye at Wanstead

Rob and his lovely wife Gill have been visiting vintage fairs in London for years – all of the traders (myself included) look forward to their visits and we have long chats and laughs whilst they also do a bit of shopping…It was only recently that I found out Rob was super keen on photography and he had also just completed a shoot “Behind the Scenes” at London Fashion Week – you can see some of his shots over on his Instagram account @streetlifecatwalk.  Rob kindly agreed to come to the fair at Wanstead and take some photographs of our lovely stallholders wares.  This is just a short selection of some of his wonderful photographs.
