Fellow of The Royal Photographic Society
Member of the Bureau of Freelance Photographers
Ann
is first and foremost a people and portrait photographer,
now specialising in Family and Child portraiture using her
newly refurbished barn studio. She is also becoming known
for her alternative wedding photography, using photo journalist
techniques to bring a fresher look to the more traditional
formal approach
She is
also passionate traveller, and has explored parts of the
world from the Middle East, to South East Asia, from Central
America to North Africa, from the Caucusus to the Himalayas.
Her
main interest is always the people and their cultures - their
family life, where they live, their religions, festivals
and arts.
So
it is not surprising that she finds the Glastonbury Festival
so fascinating. and photographs it in exactly the same way
as she would a festival in Ethiopia or Bhutan. An anthropological
experience, an extreme example of human behaviour, where
anything can and does happen!
Her
Festival photographs have been published by the BBC, The
Times Saturday Magazine, The New Statesman, Record Collector,
and in brochures, programmes, environmental magazines, in
advertising, and are suitable for Tourist Information.
