Inspired by overlooked details and everyday surfaces, Maggie and Chris transform the familiar into the unexpected. Their abstract photographs reveal a world of light, pattern, texture and movement hidden in plain sight.
Maggie discovered photography as a creative medium later in life, realising that a camera could do far more than simply record moments. After taking early retirement, she was able to explore this new direction fully.
Her earlier career as a freelance food stylist, working alongside professional photographers, helped shape her visual awareness and sense of composition. Maggie uses her camera to explore shape, pattern, colour, light and texture in everyday surroundings. Her work invites viewers to look more closely and find beauty in unexpected places.
She works with Fujifilm mirrorless cameras and prints all of her images herself using fine art inkjet papers, carefully chosen to complement each piece. She uses a combination of in-camera techniques, including intentional camera movement (ICM) and multiple exposure, alongside post-processing in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom.
Maggie is a member of the Royal Photographic Society and holds Licentiate and Associate distinctions.
Maggie is a Category Winner in the 2026 World Food Photography Awards.
Born in Cleethorpes in 1951, Chris came to photography later in life after moving to Berwick-upon-Tweed in 2009. Before retirement, his creative output was mostly reserved for building sandcastles with his children, but encouragement from his wife, Maggie, led him to join Berwick Camera Club and begin making his own images.
Colour and shape are central to Chris’s work. He enjoys looking beyond the obvious, exploring familiar surroundings in unexpected ways. His approach is playful and experimental, with a focus on creating images that are both visually striking and thought-provoking.
Chris begins with photographs taken in-camera, then develops them further using digital processes. He may combine multiple images or focus in on a single detail, allowing each piece to evolve in its own way. This flexible process results in distinctive, imaginative works that reflect his curiosity and enjoyment of the medium.
