Linda Bell DPAGB LRPS EFIAP BPE4 AWPF GPU2
I am a local photographer who lives just outside Mold in North Wales.
I enjoy all types of photography but particularly enjoy doing Nature and still life.
I started entering exhibitions and photographic salons in 2012, and have received
much pleasure from this, gaining some awards along the way. We live in a beautiful
part of the world and it inspires me on a regular basis to get the camera out and go exploring.
Jason Wharam GW DPAGB BA(Hons)
I was born in Zimbabwe, discovered photography whilst doing my PHD and found a deep passion for it. Whilst working as a Professional Safari Guide this passion grew and developed.
Being in such beautiful and breath-taking surroundings on a daily basis allowed me to develop my unique style. I have continued to develop my photography career since moving to the UK both as a judge and speaker for the PAGB, SPA and NWPA
I have become a keen landscape photographer and can often be found in the Scottish Highlands or the Mountains of North Wales. My work has been appreciated by many, appearing in publications such Africa Geographic and National Geographic, Viewbug and 500px as well as being displayed in exhibitions all over the World. I look forward to this post and will try my hardest to fulfil our members photographic appetites.
