Based in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, Jane has been a keen photographer since her teenage years, her early goals as a photographer were to create clean, sharp images to use as references for her career as a Fine Artist. In her own words “How far have I moved away from this starting point!”.

Over the last 10 years the images she takes are being seen as 'art' in their own right; the capture of light, the narrative, the staging, makeup and styling, compositions and now, editing effects and Photoshop image manipulation creating final pieces that have a more magical quality. In this way she feels she is combining her skill as a traditional painter with her passion of photography and using Photoshop to blend the two together creating an original vision. She loves to take an idea from conception, put her twist on the styling and editing and then present her unique vision as wall art, album collections or simply memories to treasure.
