The photographs in  this exhibition were selected from a much wider portfolio taken over the past 9 years that captures the

stunning beauty of this region in North Wales. I have tried to select images that represent the amazing range of the landscape from

the mountains, lakes, rivers, ancient woodland, through valleys and even onto the varied coastline to the west of the region, throughout

the year and in the dramatic and often rapidly changing light. I am very lucky to live in a stunning location, our cottage overlooks the Nantlle valley and faces south towards the Nantlle ridge and specifically Mynedd Craig Goch. It is that amazing view from our

cottage, captured during the winter, and shown above that was the inspiration for this collection.

The thinking behind the frames in this exhibition came from this idea of our very own window on Snowdonia. The frames are inspired

from the chunky wooden window sills I installed in the kitchen some years back and I wanted to get away from the large white borders

and perfectly machine made frames more often seen in photographic exhibitions. Each frame is hand crafted, natural, unique and has a visual weight that compliments the rugged and vast beauty of the landscape. My aim was to have a frame that is as much a part of the image rather than just a convenient way to display the photographs on the wall. These frames take time to produce and so are very

limited in quantity. That being said I am happy to take bespoke orders to produce frames to suit any size you require and for any of the images seen in the galleries on my website.
