My name is Emily Colhoun, and I am a Freelance Portrait and Documentary Photographer based in Lincolnshire. I use my own experiences and interests to influence and inspire all the work I creatively produce.

​

I engage with deep and meaningful context within my works, which I believe comes from a deep determination within me, to reflect equally as significant meaning that my subjects possess. I enjoy telling a story, with the main goals of such stories being one of significance, poignancy, and special to those that view it. 

​

I have created projects with community at its heart. I have captured the significant relationship between humans and animals. I have portrayed disabled access using my perspective of being a disabled individual. And I have a fondness for capturing the beauty of historical British architecture.

​

With many years of Photography study behind me, it is my hope to engage with my own photography projects in the future. I want to catch an idea that is fluttering within me, and physically capture that within the four walls of a photographic frame. It is my hope that in the future I shall produce photobooks of my works, which further induce the sense of my photos telling stories. I find it a humbling experience to find my fluttering thoughts as a permanent mark on a book, bound by the frame of a book. 

​

Currently, I work as a Marketing and Business Assistant at a small local business, which has given a platform in which to use my creative skills and academic background, and develop confidence, both professionally, and personally too.
