Rosa 1

'Rosa 1'

Rosa, the first book by Amelia Pemberton, draws together several images of her muse, the Cornish-born Rosa Lily James, created over the last seven years on her Olympus OM-1 with each outfit styled collaboratively according to the location (clothing being borrowed, found or made) and put together the night before each shoot.

Pemberton’s style celebrates creative women, imbuing her portraiture with a care-free, playful and timeless essence. Through trust and friendship, she captures the personalities of her subjects in a colourful and honest way, using the Cornish countryside as a backdrop.

This volume is colourful, moody and playful; an amalgamation of periods of Pemberton's and James’ lives consolidated in book form. With this collection, Pemberton hopes to inspire other young photographers to make the most of their creative friends and invite collaboration for the thrill of it.
