Forty Farms: A behind-the-scenes look at the making and publishing of her award-winning book.

Join award-winning Cumbrian photographer, author and RPS Fellow Amy Bateman for a behind-the-scenes look at the making and publishing of her award-winning book.

In this one-hour seminar, Amy will share the creative journey behind the project, from developing the initial idea and shaping the visual narrative, through to photographing people, place and rural life with honesty and emotional depth. She’ll explore how her documentary-style approach captures the quiet, often overlooked moments that bring a story to life, and how those images were brought together into a published body of work.

Perfect for photographers interested in storytelling, environmental portraiture, documentary projects and book-making, this talk offers an inspiring insight into the process of creating meaningful photographic work from concept to finished publication.

Talks will be held at the Edinburgh Central Youth Hostel, Apex House, 9 Haddington Pl, Edinburgh EH7 4A
