Mae Martin wasn’t really on my radar when I got the call to shoot her. She’s a Canadian comedian who’s steadily making her way into the British comedy scene. Brutally honest about her sexuality and her addiction to certain drugs, which are not only the subjects of many of her standup routines, but also the story of the Channel 4/Netflix sitcom “Feel Good”, which she wrote and is the protagonist in.
I found this venue in South London and loved it for all of its possibilities. Mae was cautious to begin with as she had a set idea of how she wanted to be seen, but the location and ideas we both liked allowed for a fun shoot.
