Photographer Brad Carr running one of his group workshops in the woods at Gregynog Hall. Talented photographer and tutor, Brad Carr, has launched personalised one-to-one tuition and group workshops through his School of Photography. Dedicated to what he describes as the “spiritual practice of the art of photography”, Brad says his new initiative is designed to help foster a deep reconnection with nature. His tuition and workshops offer “a unique and transformative approach to photography”. Brad’s next ‘Introduction to Nature Photography’ workshop will be held at Gregynog Hall, Tregynon, near Newtown on Saturday, October 26. “The foundation of photography is the technical understanding of the camera,” he said. “My mission is to harness the transformational power of photography and creativity, allowing participants to experience their own sense of catharsis and deep healing through the lens of their camera.” Moving from a corporate career that left a deep sense of emptiness and longing for another life, Brad, who lives in Welshpool, found solace and purpose in photography and the natural world. This journey of soul-searching, reconnection and self-creation has inspired him to guide others onto a similar path. ‘‘The art of photography has completely transformed my life and has introduced me to a side of myself that was unknown to me for 26 years,” he added. “The camera has been a tool for deep healing and has allowed me to express many of the emotions that were repressed during a turbulent and chaotic childhood.” He is eager to introduce international tourists to Wales’ natural beauty and sacred landscapes and has recently invited clients from the USA and Canada and as far as Australia for multi-day tours. These workshops and tuition sessions are set against the backdrop of Wales’ mystical scenery, offering participants an immersive experience that blends nature, psychology, philosophy and spirituality under the umbrella of art. Through his art, Brad is hoping to shine light on Wales and enhance the country’s reputation to a worldwide audience. His work has been published in national magazines and he is excited about an upcoming feature in a reputable American magazine. Next summer, he will present his national exhibition ‘Finding Light’ in prestigious Welsh galleries. Brad is available for public speaking engagements, having delivered talks for the Royal Photographic Society, camera clubs, online photography communities, care homes and local community groups. Next March, he will speak on ‘Finding Light: A Journey into Nature to Find My Soul’ at Gregynog Hall. Copies of the A5 zine ‘A Year Amongst Trees’ and limited-edition prints are available to purchase online via www.bradcarrphotography.co.uk .
