Raising Mental Health Awareness - Through Photography
This past weekend I had the absolute homnour of having been asked to officially open a Landscape Photography Exhibition by Photographer Nigel Thomas in Kidwelly, West Wales ; an exhibtion that Nigel has worked on to help raise awareness of Mental Health …
“I am so grateful that photography, landscape photography in particualr, has become such an important element in my life. I have found a profound sense of peace and purpose. My journey into landscape photography qas not just a creative pursuit, but a therapeutic escape from the depths of severe depression and anxiety”
I can honestly say that I’ll NEVER forget this!
Throughout my career in this creative industry I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have presented at functions around the world. I’ve had some amazing experiences and made some amazing friends … and today I add to that!
A stunning body of work that has been instrumental in his recovery and my god, what a story he has to tell and is just so damn brave to do so.
It was an emotional rollercoaster of a day but it’s a ride I wouldn’t have missed.
Truly honoured. Truly blessed.
