At the wild edge of earth, sea and sky

Storytelling in service
to the wild edges
I’ve spent years bearing witness at the wild edges. Where seabirds soar along salt-soaked cliffs, whales rise from the depths to take a breath, and unfamiliar jellyfish appear, warning of changing seas.
This is where my passion and purpose collide. A practice rooted in observation, wonder and deep listening.
My work invites us to see beyond spectacle and into relationship. To understand that we are not separate from the natural world, but part of its rhythm, its ache, its beauty.
Working with wild beings
My lens finds home in coastal places, but my storytelling stretches inland too, wherever untamed life moves and matters. From the most rugged of cliffs colonised by seabirds, to slow trails through rewilded wetlands. The underwater sway of kelp forests to the silent flash of an aurora above a still loch. From deer swimming between skerries to gannets diving at 60mph and the unspeakable grief of the perils nature faces, to the joy of witnessing something rare and raw and true.
This is a multi-sensory, multi-modal practice, combining underwater photography, drone imagery, short-form video and sharing through speaking and writing. I create visual narratives for conservation, for community, for the collective memory of this moment in time. Through visual storytelling, illuminate the wild edges and liminal space where myth, magick and intellect meet in order to amplify nature messages and messengers through story, to ignite collective curiosity and awe, and spark awakened action.

Ocean Advocacy & Ocean storytelling
Much of my work unfolds at the ocean’s edge. Born and raised by the sea in Ramsgate, I live on these clifftops, deeply connected to the ocean, a coastliner and water woman. As President of the Board of Whale Wise, marine mammal medic with BDLMR, and citizen scientist, I carry a deep responsibility to the waters that have shaped me. With a degree in Geography and masters study in Marine Protected Areas, I have a foundation of academic understanding that grounds my work.
I’ve documented:
- Whale entanglements and rescues, including humpback whale ‘Bird’ (Read more here)
- Seabirds and the peril of ghost gear in their nests
- Shifting jellyfish blooms and warming seas
- The eerie lifelessness of urchin barrens
- Plankton blooms and bioluminescence
- The tangled ethics of wildlife tourism
As a visual storyteller, I serve as a bridge, between science and story, between advocacy and art, between awareness and inspired action. Through long-form collaborations, exhibitions and editorial commissions, I use visual language to help protect what I love.
wired for wonder
Neurodivergence as a lens
I am an autistic and ADHD storyteller. This way of being is not a barrier — it is the root system of my creative vision. My neurodivergence gives me:
- A deep sensitivity to light, pattern and texture.
- The gift of pattern recognition and spatial storytelling.
- Sensory attunement that becomes a sixth sense in the field.
- Special interests that run deep, enduring and true, fuelling my thirst for knowledge and rooted understanding of what I shoot.
- A way of seeing that is layered, felt and fiercely alive.
For me, photography is a language of feeling, that can impact way beyond stating facts. It allows me to translate what I sense, the grief, the wonder, the urgency, into stories that connect.
Exhibitions & Creative Residencies
My exhibitions and residencies are immersive offerings. They’re invitations to slow down, pay attention and feel more deeply. Whether rooted in remote landscapes or island castles, each project explores liminality, seasonality and the messages that rise from the wild edges of our world.
A solo exhibition in partnership with National Trust at Scotney Castle, exploring liminal moments at the meeting points of earth, sea and sky.
28th Apr – 17th oct 2025
An exploration of the sea and the messages it shares at A Whales of Iceland Museum in Reykjavík, using underwater storytelling to share urgent ocean truths.
8th Jul – 30th sept 2025
Arctic Canvas Creative Residency – Two-week residency on Iceland’s wild west coast, responding to landscape through visual storytelling, sculpture and slow observation.

Features & recognition
When the stories I tell are recognised, it’s not about me — it’s about the visibility of the unseen. The birds, the jellyfish, the dynamic and changing coastlines. Every feature is another ripple, extending their voice and reach.

How we can work together
I collaborate with nature-connected, purpose-led brands and organisations, charities and not-for-profits, journalists and publishers, event organisers for festivals and speaking events all of whom are committed to the powerful impact of visual storytelling. Whether you need:
- A conservation-focused visual story documenting with photo or video
- Science communication imagery to support research
- Drone or underwater moments captured
- Exhibition curation & installation
- Storytelling workshops
- Short films or multimedia campaigns
I bring a multidisciplinary approach that centres storytelling that connects people, place and planet. Story is remarkable. It can spark individual awakening, curiosity with the interconnectedness of all life and amplifies collective action for positive change. Let’s co-create something that moves people.
