Faces of Frome is an ongoing project documenting the diversity of the people of Frome – both its permanent residents and those visiting this vibrant community. Everyone is invited to Jesse’s ‘pop-up studio’ for a free portrait.
Sitters will receive a FREE digital copy of their portrait. You are welcome to come by yourself or with friends or family – as many of you can fit in our studio! With sitters’ permissions the photographs will become part of an archive, added to with each edition of Photo|Frome festival, building a unique record of this wonderful place.
