On 18thMay of 2025, Pulse Collective hosted a Pop-up summer rooftop party in collaboration with Essence Music TV on top of the Shoredtich Exchange building in the heart of London's creative and party district. A perfect warmup for the summer of 2025 and unforgettable vibes. Featured sets from incredible DJs including Sostalicious, Headrowmusic, Jackyboom, and Skala to welcome in the sunshine, and with a lovely sponsored beverage, DRTY, to boot.

I approached this with a "street photography" mindset. Minimal posed moments or "freind group" photos - I wanted to blend into the crowd and capture it's natural energy. With a very loose list of deliverables and having warmed up recently from In The Rave #3 just a week before, I set to work.

Shooting in all-natural light through mid to late afternoon we caught some amazing day-time sun light and just a bit of near-golden hour toward the end. I faced some challenges with contantly changing light conditions but was incredibly happy with the results - testimonied by Pulse still using my images in their marketting into 2026
