Slow Travel. Mindful Living. Creative Storytelling.
Helen is a photographer, writer and an environmentalist based in the UK and beyond. She uses considered imagery and thoughtful words, together with a people-and-planet centred approach, to help sustainable business, ethical travel organisations and wild-hearted humans tell their stories. Her work is forever inspired by this beautiful, fierce, fragile planet we call home.
