Shona Perkins is a Scottish Photographer, specialising in Seascape and Coastal Photography, known in particular for her use of intentional camera movement (ICM Photography).
Heavily influenced by contemporary art and abstract minimalism, Shona has spent the past few years developing her passion for ICM Photography.
Whilst largely self-taught, Shona previously enrolled with the British Academy of Photography gaining a greater knowledge of the fundamentals and complexities of digital photography.
Technique is extremely important to Shona and whilst ICM photography demonstrates a certain creative freedom and experimentation, Shona applies a considered, focussed and disciplined approach to her work ensuring the best results are achieved in camera.
Often described as creating a sense of calm through her imagery, Shona manages to capture emotional depth, solitude, tranquillity and haunting beauty in her work, all whilst maintaining her distinctive painterly style.
Known as an inspirational leader and speaker, Shona established her Business, My Beautiful Scotland in 2018 which showcases her stunning portfolio, leaving you in no doubt as to why Scotland has been voted one of the most beautiful Countries in the world.
