Hi, I’m Fiona

Through my photography and writing, I aim to share stories that help build connection and deepen our understanding of what makes us human. There is more that connects us, than divides us, and there is so much beauty. Through my work I invite you to experience the wonder and awe of people and their stories, and to value more deeply the beauty of nature around us, particularly our open waters.
