When I saw this news pop up online, it stunned me. Reynisfjara, Iceland’s black sand beach I’ve returned to again and again over twelve years I’ve been travelling to Iceland. The black sand threshold where I’ve felt most alive, studying light from the air and stood humbled by colossal waves, has been transformed beyond recognition…
What happens when photography is shaped not by a brief, a checklist or a shot list, but by a single word? In October, I travelled to Japan with Fujifilm and a team of photographers as part of my journey to becoming as an Official FUJIFILM X-Photographer. We’d chatted about creative projects we could work on…
There is a particular feeling I carry when I move through my motherland, the Isle of Thanet. It is hard to give voice to what it is. A sense of loss that has a rising feeing of sadness and deep resentment. Feeling untethered, seeking something that is hard to find. It is something that is…
Creative residency preparation begins long before we arrive. When the destination is wild, remote and shaped by the elements, the way we prepare becomes part of the creative process itself. During my summer residency at Arctic Canvas in West Iceland, creative residency preparation was central to ensuring I could create from a place of presence….
Water shapes a place and that is true for Overstone Lakes Holiday Park in Northamptonshire. Steadily and over time in the way that all the most meaningful transformations happen. It draws wildlife and it holds the sky in its surface. Giving it back at a different angle. It creates a focal point in the day….
Stories tap into the deepest parts of our being. They help us unravel what we know and challenge us to reimagine what’s possible. For too long, the story of the off-season and winter photography has been one of absence, of waiting, retreating, shutting down, surviving. But what if we’ve been telling it wrong? What if…
If you’re still using the same bright, sunny images you shot in summer to promote your accommodation through autumn and winter, your storytelling is out of rhythm with the season. It’s a quiet but costly mistake. The light changes, the land changes, and the way people rest and reconnect shifts too. When your visuals don’t…
There is a particular quality to the English countryside in the hour before the light drops or just after it rises. In Worcestershire, with the River Avon moving through the lower ground and Bredon Hill rising to the south, that quality becomes something close to extraordinary. It is the light I arrived for at Bredon…
Aber Bay Holiday Park sits on a wild edge of earth, sea and sky. Nestled where the the Cambrian Mountains meet the sea, with Clarach Bay forming a gentle cove like beach before opening out into the wider Cardigan Bay. It is a beautiful space to be, west facing for sunsets, held by the particular…
There are landscapes that shape us quietly, over time, and there are others that strike like lightning. Leaving an imprint that feels almost cosmic. Snæfellsnes and the national park around Snæfellsjökull is both. Rising from Iceland’s western edge, this glacier topped volcano holds stories written in ice and ash. Its layered geology a record of…
