PHOTOGRAPHY
Lisa worked as a photographer for twelve years, with past clients including the Independent on Sunday, Daily Telegraph and Observer.
Prints of her sea photographs – including many from her books – can be bought through the website’s Sea Gallery. Further information on buying prints here.
The photographs also sell through galleries in Cornwall. This includes Lisa’s local Polperro Arts Foundation, which has framed and mounted prints, and signed copies of her books.
About Lisa
Author & photographer
Lisa grew up on eroding cliffs on the Isle of Sheppey, with stories of local pubs and churches that had been lost to the sea. She is the author of several award-winning books, and Rag and Bone (John Murray, 2020) won the Royal Society of Literature Giles St Aubyn Award for Non-fiction. For the past 20 years she has lived with her family on the south coast of Cornwall, in a house shared with buckets and boxes of beach finds.
