I am a portrait and documentary photographer working with analogue photography, which I process and print in my garden-darkroom.
Exploring notions of home and family, place attachment and our relationship to the natural world, I tell local and personal stories, which reflect global concerns. Much of my work focuses on a small part of rural Surrey where I grew up and now live.
I work with a range of old and new film cameras from 35mm to 5x4. Mindful of my impact on the environment working with film, I employ environmentally-friendly practices and developer.
I am a photography educator and researcher, currently working on the UCA research project Fast Forward: Women in Photography (www.fastforward.photography). I have an MFA in Photography from University for the Creative Arts, Farnham and a background in television documentary and arts and culture journalism. I have exhibited internationally in group shows as a solo artist and more recently as part of a small visual arts collective (www.collective.me.uk).
