This first one is by Alan Giberson, who is 17 and from Ohio. He is absolutely awesome at one of my favourite formats ever – the 6×7 portrait – especially when it’s of someone as badass and cool looking as this guy. I want to hang out with him all day.

Next, one by Ryan Gaffney, from New York. Ryan and his crew came down to London a few months ago, where I had the pleasure of hanging with them (that means getting really sweaty dancing in Bloomsbury Lanes).  Anyway, he just posted up a whole bunch of photos he took here on his website, and they are really great.

We love couples that are equally as cool and good at photography as the other, and Rafa & Alba definitely fit both of those criteria. They are both 21 and originally from Spain, now exploring London and their lives together collectively – and getting some really great shots out of it. The above is by Rafa…

…and this one’s by Alba.

We got this as an email submission from Tommy Malekoff this week, and i stared at it for a long, long time. A tattoo. Of giraffes fucking…Amazing.

This is a photo by Eydie McConnell from LA. Eydie is really great, I love a lot of her photos but I completely forgot about her for a while, she’s been quiet on the internet front (probably living her life like a proper person). We once collaborated cross-continent for a shoot for Vice, which you can see here.

Finally…an exciting opportunity! We’ve teamed up with the Photographer’s Gallery to offer Photo Posse – a vocational training scheme for budding teenage photographers. Check it out!

I really like all the photos by George Horler on his Flickr – I think he’s 18, and his stuff captures a really great suburban brand of serenity.

Kyle Hinton is 16, and probably needs to upload some more pictures onto the internet. Isn’t this girl from Camp Rock or something?

This one is by Holly, who is 18. She is really stepping her game up with fashion and editorial work at the moment, coming out with some really great stuff, including an awesome shoot for Vice Style…check her out!

I know we posted her a few weeks ago, but whatever – All of Maisie Cousins‘ shoots are kind of amazing. I like how they look like the ’90s.

Julia Wilam is 15, and from Poland. The amount of skill and diversity she seems to have already is pretty ridiculous. Expect to see big things; her stuff is already far more thoughtful and interesting than people twice her age.

Lastly we have a picture by Willa Nasatir. If we can ever get together properly publishing the first edition of our Minus Five series, she will be in it. I found this image on a really great site called No Retrospective, who are a sort of collective portfolio site.

First we have a photo by Louis Fry – who really pushes the capabilities of polaroids to their limit a lot of the time, getting some amazing results. This one is 35mm, but whatever – it’s a great shot.

It would seem that this week everyone has decided to redesign/massively update their website. First of all we have Dave Geeting‘s which now has a load more of his awesome 120 stuff and also his trip to London a while back…

…and also Bobby Doherty‘s, whose site is a kind of mindfuck exploratory weird zone. there are lots of hidden bits and pieces, it is equally frustrating and cool.

I’m pretty sure that in this photo by Sam Plant a flourescent tube is getting smashed. That is one of the best feelings ever doing that. You should try it!

Kelsey Reckling‘s stream is really varied. I think the best thing she shoots though is these super-intimate, almost fly-on-the-wall shots of girls – and that’s not just the teenage boy in me talking.

The last photo is by Dimitri Karakostas, and comes with EXCITING NEWS. I’ve just done a split zine release with him called IT COULD BE WORSE, and it looks amazing. 32 pages full colour, hand-bound by him up in Canada. Check it out/buy a copy on his blog!

This one’s by Robbie Brannigan, who is a dude from New Jersey. I don’t really have much to say about him except for that this is a really nice photo. It makes me think of humidity, and the smell of trees.

Here’s a photo by Ian Markell, who is 18. His blog is really great, always being updated – he shoots awesome little editorials of his friends and comrades, super stylish.

This one is by Andrew Musson. Not really sure what is going on here at all, but this is from a new series he’s working on that is looking pretty awesome so far.

It’s pretty obvious why this photo by Tim Kelly reminds us of summer.

Do you know what isn’t fair? How in America photographers like Margaret Durow get amazing lakes, sunsets, landscapes and more to capture at will, whereas here in Britain we are given back pretty much nothing by nature. Whatever. Have a look at her site, and let it transport you into a lovely dreamy summer haze.

Lastly, we’ve got a picture by DARK YOUTH – which is two girls called Sasha and Leyla from Moscow. Our buddies over at Platform did a great feature on them earlier this week, and they look like they have the most fun out of anyone in Russia. Yeah!

Starting off with a photo by Jolie Altshuler – she’s 18 and from Miami. This photo is unashamedly cheesy and cute, but she does lots of more *PuNk* stuff too on her flickr – expect lots of upside down crosses and sequins.

This is by Andrew Nemiroski, who is 18. Kid is absolutely spot-on with the serenity and timelessness game; really memorable and striking work.

Not often we get this happen, so we thought we’d include it – Macalla Duffy created a Flickr with one single image on it just so that we had something to link to on our site. That is pure dedication. Thanks, Macalla!

To go alongside that another original interpretation of New york by Joe Skilton. Joe is holding down the UK on the other side of the pond right now, and getting some awesome images out of it.

Amy Lombard is really really good at shooting strangers and the public. I’m scared of everyone in public so i would never do that, she’s got more balls than me. It’s probably because she’s a cutie. She also just got a new site up, check it out.

Last we have a shot by Eleni Mettyear, who’s 18 and from Brighton. Eleni shoots all sorts of amazing fashion and editorial work. These ones are of a girl called Florrie, who is not only really hot but plays drums about a thousand times better than I do – search her on Youtube!

This photo is by Adri Law, who is 19, and from Los Angeles. She takes great photos of cool LA kids living their cool LA lives, but in a really refreshing way – totally original in all the stuff she does.

here’s an exclusive image from Yves Drillet, who is 19 and from France. He does a whole host of cool things, including a book published by Kaugummi, and an exhibition to accompany it at Alphagraph, in Rennes. check it out!

Another French guy doing great things now – this is by Julien Roper, who runs the publishing house Continue de Creuser. They’ve got big things planned – keep a look out.

I have no idea at all what is going on in this picture by Juan Chao…but i am way into it. Juan is going to be in the first issue of a publication we are going to be getting together really soon…

This photo is by Francesca Way. Her photos are always pretty mystical, and allude to something greater than what is shown. We really like that.

This last one is by Jordan Small. Timeless American documentation and grand grainy landscapes galore by this dude, plus some really stunning, calm images.

This photo is an exclusive by Anna Ryon, who is 18. She is having a solo exhibition in Seattle which opens tomorrow night, and she kindly sent me some stuff from it to look at. You can tell just by looking at her stuff why it makes sense to give someone this young a full solo show – she’s amazing!

This picture is by Andrew Green, from a series called I Want Tabone You. That is a good name for a series.

Nick Pomeroy‘s photos have so much charm to them its unreal. They are always filthy and scratched up, and you can tell he develops them himself; but this fucked-up-ness really adds to the intimacy and personal level of his stuff, every photo reads like a full story – he’s on fire.

I love it when you see a photographer you love take on a new medium and just be absolutely amazing with it. I’ve never seen Hannah Davis shoot any 120 stuff at all before, and straightaway she comes out with perfect, magical chunks of normality like this.

I ran into Matt Martin on Brick Lane the other day, he was shooting a zine purely made up of photos of photographers, so i stood awkwardly for about 5 minutes while he took my photo. Anyway, Matt just got back from what seemed like a really awesome trip to the States, where he did all sorts of roadtripping and crazy shit, and bought back a ton of great images – like this one!

This last one is by Maisie Cousins, who’s 17 and from London. She takes really dreamy, ethereal photos of cute girls and stuff, but more importantly, she has some of the best hair ever.

Ralph Dennis is seventeen, lives in London and is currently still at school. He took this when he was in the Slovakia last month, (as well as taking a bunch of dope photos of trees and stuff). Ralph also does some pretty interesting photographic projects, like painting on people and other messiness.

I am always too shy/scared to ask strangers to take their photo, and so to see that at 16 Nick White is already taking some really striking, honest portraits of America’s seediest general public is really amazing – he has some great candid portrait and landscape stuff too, check him out.

This photo by Kiley Sheehan is amazing. I don’t have much more to say about it apart from that, i could look at it for hours.

Here’s an exclusive from Bobby Doherty, who is from New York. Bobby is awesome but has gone all secretive and removed his online photographic presence somewhat though, which sucks – we are pretty into the anomalous, weird object-centric view of photography he takes.

It’s awesome when you have a couple who take equally as great photos as the other – so here are two pictures from J Alex Goss and Alexa West, who are both 18 and have a really great eye for detail. I imagine them going on little photo adventures together.

This one’s by Alexa.

We thought that seeing as this is our first post, we’d narcissistically include ourselves. I’m Lewis – i’m 17 and i do a load of things. My photography is a bit all over the place i think, but some people seem to like it – i’ve released a few books and done stuff with Vice, MTV, Platform and a load of others. I have a site with about a thousand too many sets here.

My name is Alex. Photography is what motivates me, I’m not really sure what aspect particularly, and I wouldn’t really say I have a defined style, but I enjoy and appreciate it. I’ve had work featured here and there, and keep my best stuff on my website.

this picture is by Keko Jackson, who is an 18-year old dude from LA. We’ve featured a few pieces of his surreal documentation of american culture before, and he definitely has the eye for weird shit – his blog NBD BRO is  an amazing collection of mainly frat boys/satanic references/gifs.

Kohlton Ervin is 17 and from Spokane, which already means he is great because of the sheer volume of awesome bands from there. His photographic eye is ridiculous, far beyond his age – the intricacies and details of existence and landscape that he picks up on are flawless, and always make me wish i could spot a good image like he does.

Here’s a little exclusive from 20-year old London/Brighton based Harry Mitchell. we are super-into Harry’s intense and striking portraiture, he’s already got a great signature style going on – he is going to be one of the first photographers in our forthcoming series of publications, called Minus Five – more about that another time.

Finally, we have a photo from a guy called Pol Wah Tse. Amazingly, this is the first time we have ever found someone who actually takes great photos under our age requirements (although we quickly realised after starting this project strict age limits were a silly idea). He’s 12! I found out about him because he also has amazing photographers/graphic designers bringing him up – Wai Lin Tse and the dope Klas Ernflo.

Also, a bit of promotion: there is a great little article about us in this month’s Dazed & Confused. Check it out!
