A celebration collection

There are certain moments in life where you feel a little nostalgic and for me, this is one of them. For my 40th birthday, I decided I wanted to create something that was a celebration of my love of my motherland of Thanet, of nature and in dedication to my lifelong passion of chasing light, which I feel overwhelming gratitude that I get to call my job. And so ’40 frames for 40′ was born.

The one day exhibition took place at Joseph Wales Studio in Margate on my 40th birthday, Saturday 6th April 2024 in my birthplace of Margate. I felt so inspired to reflect at this moment and curate a collection of still frames that pique curiosity and create a day to share and give back to our community, with conversation and connection at the heart.

It was such a special day and I’ve wanted to preserve the magick and have created a virtual exhibition here.

I feel very humbled that my work takes me on adventures deep into nature with folk who are soul aligned. You may have seen my images, my work regularly features in local, national and international publications and has been published in many books across the world.

An adventure to the wildest of edges for my 40th birthday.

celebrating wild edges close to home & distant shores….

Made in Margate

Mixing the alchemy of storytelling, citizen science and photography to awaken our sense of awe and rewild nature connection.

It was such a moment to see 40 of my images on print, away from the depths of my hard drives and on the walls of a gallery!

It was made special by the folk who visited, the sharing, the stories, the connection to our local landscapes and love of nature further afield.
