AMANDA JACKSON IN CONVERSATION WITH ELLIE HOPKINS
COLWYN BAY, OCTOBER 2019
(released on the Ffoton podcast 13 December 2019)

Canadian by birth but resident in the UK since 2001, Amanda Jackson is a commercial portrait and lifestyle photographer based just over the Welsh border in Malvern.

After studying photography in Hereford she has continued to build a portfolio of work for numerous clients whilst also developing her own personal projects. Her lifestyle work has been featured in various publications including The Observer, The Guardian, The Independent; Marie Claire, In Clover Magazine and Photoworks Annual.

Her ongoing personal project ‘To Build A Home’ which documents the people and setting of the Lammas Eco Village in Pembrokeshire gained her Arts Council funding in 2013 and making the photographs inspired her to purchase a small plot of land nearby - providing a lure and impetus to revisit the site with her camera. Work from the series has been exhibited in Aberystwyth, The Northern EYE Festival and Ffotogallery and several prints are held in the archive at The National Library of Wales in Aberystwyth.

Ffoton managed to pin Amanda down at the 2019 Northern EYE Festival in Colwyn Bay to record a conversation with fellow photographer Ellie Hopkins. Our thanks to both.
