Emily Jones
Emily is a documentary and portrait photographer based in Bristol. Her body of work often explores telling narratives about individuals lives and focusing on small intimate details that help to portray their story. She has an interest in the connection between people and place, often following the same subject over a significant period of time.
Her most recent body of work 'An English Dream', was initially formed from her appreciation of the physical landscape. Through her photographs she explores spaces that are often overlooked, aiming to find the beauty in the mundane.
