Therapeutic photography
photography for wellbeing
I offer workshops and individual tuition in book arts and bookbinding techniques, photography (both analogue and digital), photomontage, and therapeutic photography.
These approaches are grounded in many years of experience making my own work, working in community settings, and teaching in higher education. My practice is shaped by developing ideas that expand across different formats and outputs, and—most importantly—by an enjoyable, thoughtful, and reflective way of navigating life through creative practice.
Upcoming Workshops:
- Mini Mindful book arts Masterclass 15 January, or 17 April 2026 (online)
- Mindful Photography Taster session Tuesday 24th February, or 26th March 2026 (online)
- Expanding Your Practice 4 week course. 5 March 2026 (online)

Book arts for practitioners and those interested in wellbeing, photography and making of simple book structures – bringing your images off the screen to create a haptic experience.
You’re warmly invited to join my Facebook group, More Than Looking, a friendly community centred on mindful photography. The group explores ways of seeing the world that are considered, reflective, and therapeutic. With a monthly prompt designed for use with a camera phone, along with guest hosts throughout the year, it offers an accessible and enjoyable way to stay engaged with photography while taking some time for yourself.
Mindful Photography draws on the established practice of mindfulness and Therapeutic Photography for wellbeing. It can help with self-awareness, relaxing, resilience, self-efficacy, and engaging more fully in our surroundings and everyday life.
