Somerset's Most Spectacular Landscapes

Few English counties offer the landscape variety that Somerset does. The ancient hill of Glastonbury Tor — rising above the Levels into an eternal Somerset sky — creates portraits unlike anywhere else in England. The medieval streets of Wells, the wild moorland of Exmoor, the flat open Somerset Levels with their vast skies, and the hilltop drama of Dunster Castle each bring a completely different atmosphere to portrait photography.

I photograph individuals, couples, and families across all of Somerset — from Taunton and Bridgwater to Wells and Glastonbury, Yeovil and Frome to the remote villages of Exmoor and the Quantocks. Somerset's extraordinary diversity means every portrait session here is genuinely different.

Portrait Locations Across Somerset
