About
JulieAnn is a freelance photographer based in Kent. She was born in East Anglia to an English mother and Jamaican father. Her art reflects her mixed heritage - she is as comfortable working with the vibrant colours of the Caribbean as she is with the subtler hues of an English landscape. She feels most at home when outdoors amongst nature and with her camera never far from her side, she seeks to capture the constantly changing movement of light and shadow, the wind and the weather.
“As an artist, my eye is drawn to the slightly hidden and obscure. I enjoy the intimacy of getting close to my subjects. You’ll often find me laying on the ground or twisting myself into positions to get a unique view.
The ephemeral nature of all things is what I seek in my work, be it the fleeting emotion on a face, to an impermanent raindrop clinging to a tulip leaf. In my abstract work, I enjoy pushing the boundaries of the true nature of what I perceive through my lens, often abstracting the subject to a simple shape or series of colours.”
JulieAnn enjoys the freedom of working across many genres and believes this enhances her work and mental health. “To be challenged in a healthy way makes you feel more alive and helps keeps you young,” is a message she believes in, “especially when changing career later on in life.”
JulieAnn is successfully combining her fine art photography with work in the commercial sector and is able to bring her artistic style into play to create standout images for her clients. Follow this link to view some of her work Commercial Client Gallery
