I started a Patreon page with a view to create beautiful photographs of Kent and to encourage more people to get out and enjoy the beautiful landscape we have in Kent. The pandemic has given me time to focus on the direction of my business and I am now working on a series of walking books on Kent as well as photographing the county.

Who Am I

I am a travel photographer based near Ashford in Kent, United Kingdom, with over 27 years of photographic experience and an online stock library on Alamy. Since starting my career as a photographer, I have concentrated on photographing France. However, I am now turning my attention to getting out into the local countryside. A third of the county is covered by Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and I am looking forward to exploring this landscape in more detail. Kent has some amazing rural views and tranquil walking routes as well as some interesting ones in the smaller towns. I will be researching new walking routes and new areas to photograph.

For this project I am taking my travel photography skills and will be applying them to this long term photography project to capture the landscape of Kent. I will be looking through the lens of my camera as if through the eyes of a tourist. My plan is to combine these skills with the creative style I have developed in my art photography.

No trip into rural Kent to photograph the scenery is complete without a planned walking route. Kent is crisscrossed by signposted footpaths both in the countryside and also smaller towns and villages making it easy to get off the beaten track.

Included in this Patreon project are greetings cards and walking routes. I am passionate about keeping in touch with friends and family and want to be a part of keeping the tradition of sending postcards alive.

I will be working on this project around 4 days a week. The rest of the week will be spent on administration, various writing projects and (when the pandemic allows) my Creative Pilgrimage project.

Why become a patron?
Becoming a patron gives you the opportunity to support a local photographer and be part of the creative process. The majority of the walking routes will be circular

At any point you can stop becoming a patron.
