About Ian Munro:

Ian’s photographs have a distinctive and powerful fine art conceptual storytelling look.

Ian had never thought about majoring in the arts while growing up in South Wales, UK. He had once shown some interest in pencil and pastel drawing, but after finishing school and playing sports, he entered the working world. His creative side then emerged in 2008 while visiting Nepal and the Himalayas. From there, he developed techniques with photography, focusing on nature and landscapes and decided to look for a studio in 2011. He co-founded Skint Creative Studio in 2016 and has been working successfully ever since.
