✈️ Through the Lens: Lara’s Journey from Family Albums to Aviation Photography
From flicking through dusty old family photo albums to capturing the thunderous roar of aircraft mid-flight, Lara’s journey into photography is one of passion, discovery, and pure creative joy. Based on the borders of Cambridge and Norfolk, Lara began her path behind the camera by photographing her local community, creating a charity calendar that sparked something much bigger. Today, she captures everything from precious wedding memories and family portraits to the powerful world of aviation photography—a genre that gives her the ultimate “shoot buzz.”
In this inspiring talk, Lara shares how photography has shaped her life, why aviation continues to fuel her fascination, and how the craft can become a powerful tool for wellbeing, creativity, and mental health. She’ll take you behind the lens of her aviation work—showing how it’s not just about the aircraft, but the environment, the crews, and the stories in motion that make each shot come alive.
Whether you’re a beginner, hobbyist, or seasoned photographer, Lara’s story is a powerful reminder that photography is for everyone. It’s about finding your passion, chasing what excites you, and using the camera as both a creative outlet and a way to navigate life’s ups and downs.
