Featured Projects:
From a recent documentary series celebrating the older generation in the UK, in response to the ageist society we live in. ‘From Water' is a personal project that was created during lockdown in 2020. It explores my relationships with both the sea and the people around me- or lack thereof in times of isolation. From a series documenting the Lifeguards of Ceredigion Bay. This particular image from the series was selected for the BJP Portrait of Britain 2019.
Images from a recent commission for an independent clothing brand campaign. A super 8 film, exploring the mental and physical health benefits of Wild Swimming in the UK. A natural light, studio portrait taken at home during my time in Bristol.
