A Year In The Life Of...

In the books I take photos throughout the course of a year, chronicling the seasonal changes and hopefully capturing the essence and character of the place as seen through my eyes and lens!

The images are accompanied by text containing historical titbits and natural history facts that I have come across during the course of my research and have particularly taken my fancy. My landscape photography has been influenced by photographer Charlie Waite, whose use of light I have always tried to emulate.

Other Galleries

When not working on the books I am out taking photos for pleasure. I love travelling, giving me the opportunity to do street photography as well as my normal landscapes. Henri Cartier Bresson being a particular hero, his candid photos often with a hint of humour, are wonderful.

About Joanna

As long as I can remember I have loved art and photography. Growing up as an only child I would spend hours drawing and moved onto photography when I left home. For years I worked as a physiotherapist just photographing my favourite things when I got the chance. I have created many scrapbooks over the years and was doing one on Richmond Park for my sons for when they left home. A friend commented that I should try and get it published. The rest as they say is history. A Year In The Life Of Richmond Park was published in 2000 and a whole new career opened up before me. I have subsequently had a further 7 books published. The most recent A Year In The Life Of Kingston Upon Thames being published in 2017. It has been a pleasure to combine my hobby with my work and I feel very privileged and lucky to have been able to make a living out of something that I love doing.
