KerryPayne's photostream |
I'm a self-confessed romantic, driven to document the beauty and poetry I see everywhere I go. I am also a traveler and the urge to roam and my love for photography are happy companions.
A reformed corporate world entrepreneur I now spend my days pursuing and documenting stories that matter; preserving my own version of history (with a small 'h') for the curious few who follow.
I shoot with a Canon 5d mark ll & 28mm lens. I work light, weighed down by nothing but my camera strapped to my wrist and the occasional inhibition.
For reasons I think I'm beginning to understand, I am drawn to moments of solitude.
I've had the honor of learning from some of the world's most inspiring and generous photographers and I count my blessings every day to have discovered my passion so early in life. Some never do.
CURRENT PROJECT: LEFT BEHIND
My immediate focus is on my long term project "Left Behind" which tells the stories of suicide survivors - those who are left behind when somebody they love dies by suicide. Having lost my own father to suicide, this project matters.

"I started flickr not knowing what to expect! Kerry became one of the first people I met and we quickly started exchanging pictures. With an endless variety of High-Class work you never know whats coming. But to me it will be inspiration.
Theres the added twist that being from different sides of the world how could you not notice such smashing contrasting ideas in our work.ethics and ideas.
To finish "Thanks Kerry,your work will bring the best out of me for a long time to come"
Best Wishes
