NICK WYNNE IN CONVERSATION WITH EMYR YOUNG
COLWYN BAY, OCTOBER 2019
(released on the Ffoton podcast 1 March 2020)


Hailing from Merseyside, Nick Wynne’s life-long passion for photography is evident in his self-initiated projects documenting people and communities - both here in the UK and wider afield.

Based in the Wirral not far from the border of the North Wales coast, his passion started in the school darkroom and led him to study photography at Wolverhampton Polytechnic College before being accepted on the Documentary Photography course in Newport. 

Nick’s early and ongoing work stands out on Instagram - the online platform where he chooses to share examples of his of photography. Early in his study, his close documentation of a Traveller community in Flintshire resulted in a series of strong images that then fuelled a desire travel to America, Romania and more recently, a Syrian refugee camp in the Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon to document people and communities ‘on the edge’. His Traveller and Romanian images caught the eye of Offline Journal - resulting in a feature article and cover of issue 3 in 2019.

Ffoton met up with Nick at the 2019 Northern EYE Photography Festival in Colwyn Bay.
