I write stores and sell my work via my website https://kateyjanephotography.photoshelter.com Hi, I'm Kate, an adventurous photographer from the Fenland countryside in Cambridgeshire, England and now living in The Wild Thing A.K my motorhome. Truth be told, Fenland countryside is one of the worst places to live for me and to be an adventure photographer. No trees. No hills. Just endless flat fields
. But it taught me to see beyond the objects and look for the mood of nature. My world is also driven by dyslexia. I have long since given up on trying to work out my feelings towards subjects as an artist. Nowadays, I just let my emotions flow which then allows connecting with all kinds of things. To capture special moments and places in my life is based on adventures and walking to new places to catch fresh air breaths. I feel like the weight of the everyday problems is lifted. I got my first camera, a Kodak compact when I was 6 years old. But it wasn't until later in life that I became fascinated with photography after taking a photo of a lightning bolt during a stormy night. Photography is my antidepressant and a way to take a step back from a rat race of life. Whether it's getting muddy for a macrofungi shoot, standing still to capture a shy bird or staying up late to see the full moon - for me, every photoshoot is an adventure. My adventures also help me take care of my auntie, who's struggling with dementia keeping her body active and mind busy, who sadly died during the pandemic in 2020. A self-taught photographer who doesn't believe in Photoshop
I'm a self-taught photographer who prefers to shoot her photos using the manual mode of the camera. I love using modern cameras in an old fashioned way, from the Canon 7D mk2 (I no longer own) and now a canon R6 mirrorless. Photography, for me, plays a small role in my life. It is a tool that allows me to show others our wonderful world in a documentary art style, showing it in its rawness. Email me at [email protected]
