Analogue Photographer
I graduated in Fine Art (2022) from the University of Highlands and Islands. I have always been interested in photography and started learning analogue photography while studying fine art. I have a background in contemporary dance and dance therapy and have worked in the healthcare profession.
Street Photography 2021. Meandering in London (Haringey and the East End). Credits to the unknown graffiti artists whose work I have photographed.
Following the social documentary tradition, I documented several rallies in London over 2021 and 2022. My intention was to photograph these events through the personal lens of the participants. I am interested in the narrative and emotive potential of photography, as well as the power of photography to explore personal and social histories.

I live in a location surrounded by woodlands and enjoy returning to this subject throughout the year. Photographing the natural environment is enjoyable and helps me explore the elements of photography such as light and composition.
