Libby Foster is a freelance Photographer and Journalist from North Yorkshire, specialising in portrait photography and Digital Art. 

 

Libby’s love for photography began whilst studying at Leeds City College, where she went on to explore stories from people with diverse backgrounds. This then led her to study at LBU.

Her project titled ‘The Children of Lockdown’ is a series of portraits capturing children during the COVID-19 lockdown in the UK. It explains the stresses and strains of raising a child in isolation, away from their friends, school and the outside world. How has the pandemic affected them in the early stages of their lives with little to no outside influence?
