Christmas is a magical time of year to be visiting London. There are spectacular decorations everywhere and people are generally in a festive mood.  The city comes to life during the holidays, with festive activities and cheery Christmas markets in every corner of the city. With Christmas decorations lining the main shopping streets, ice rinks in historic settings and fabulous theatre shows on the schedule, it’s the perfect time to celebrate all things merry and bright.

DISCOVER LONDON is an innovative project whose purpose is to make the participants live a professional experience for those who love photography and video making.

The main goal of the project is to valorise and promote the magic city of London, in UK, through photos, reportage, videos made by photographers (amateurs and not) from different places of the world.

Hi, I'm Veronica, a 20-year-old Communication Design student at IED Milan. My passion for photography began when I was just 8 years old, and ever since, I've loved traveling and capturing the world through my lens.

Veronica

Hello! My name is Črtomir, a 19-year-old photographer from Slovenia.

Although my journey with photography began just a year ago, it has quickly become a central part of my life. 

Photography, for me, is more than just a craft; it’s a creative outlet that allows me to express myself and capture fleeting moments that might otherwise be forgotten with time. Each photo I take is a way to freeze time and preserve memories, and that’s what keeps me inspired every day.

Outside of photography, I’m passionate about reading, which helps me unwind and expands my horizons. I’m also committed to staying fit and active, and going to the gym is a regular part of my routine.
