Photographer puts the love back into lockdown

Ahead of Valentine’s Day, photographer Blake Ezra and graphic designer Emily Theodore have collaborated on a new creative project, #lockdownloving.

The collection of 20 images craft together Ezra’s visually stunning photography with Theodore’s quirky lettering and feature phrases that play on the new vocabulary of the pandemic, such as Social Kisstancing, Tiers on my Pillow and Quarantease.

Speaking about collaborating virtually, Ezra said: “Working with Emily was a treat. She has an amazing sense of aesthetic and really brought the ideas to life.”

Meanwhile, Theodore reciprocated the praise, saying she “had a lot of fun working with Blake – he’s not only a talented creative but a super lovely guy”. 

The #lockdownloving collection is available to view on Sunday, 14 February via Instagram @BlakeEzraPhoto and @Emmtheo
