About me… I have lived in Stoke Newington, Hackney for over 36 years. I have two fantastic children. My daughter has two children of her own, which makes me a Granny (!) I have been a primary school teacher, special needs coordinator, primary school headteacher and an education officer running services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. I have an MBA in educational leadership, a diploma in teaching children with specific learning difficulties and LRPS (Licentiate of the Royal Photographic Society) I left the world of education in July 2010. I now follow my passion for photography.. My special passion is nature and wildlife photography, particularly urban wildlife and conservation stories.
