Oh Comely; the magazine that never fails captures my curiosity

The odd yet witty articles, the genius layout and the optimum fact that there is something to read on every page; to me this is something that all magazines should have. Oh Comely most definitely has this; yet the one thing that strikes me the most when I’m turning from page to page is the photography.

I have always been a sucker when it comes to beautiful photography. I am completely terrible at taking photographs myself; but looking at other people’s photography always catches my attention.

An array of photographs entitled ‘Stacy in plaits’ shown in issue six are completely brilliant. They capture a girl who portrays a sense of innocence in each photograph. She wears a different blouse, and has a different style of plait in her hair; who knew that something so simple could be translated into such beautiful photographs.

From picking up Oh Comely for the first time in a magazine shop in Manhattan, I become curious even at the sight of the front cover.
