CathyD Photography Hi I'm Cathy. I love photography, especially macro, and being out in a woods or a nature reserve hunting for creepy crawlies. Hello! - and welcome to my page.

However, I am also hireable for any midlands based non-wedding events, Theatre group photography, and promotional work! My name is Cathryn Dhonau and I hail from Worcester, England. Photography had been my hobby for many years, making time for it when I could between my shifts as a carer in a hospice. Working in care for 18 years, I listened to a lot of life stories, and all too commonly heard the

words “I wish I’d…”
Three short words heard so often eventually leave an indelible mark, and as much as I enjoyed care work, my dream was to be able to take my photography forward. I soon realised how hard it is to learn a new profession when wrapped up in such a demanding one, so with the support of my lovely family, I took a year out. I converted a bedroom into a small studio and concentrated solely on building my knowledge and confidence in as many aspects of photography as I could. I consider myself an ‘eclectic photographer’. I love it all: people, macro, scenery, creative, abstract – I find that the genres influence each other to often give me different ideas to capture what is happening around me. I get the same buzz from all of it and will try anything!

Bit of a photo-dump from the last couple of weeks, from either my garden or the Diglis nature reserve with a couple from Spetchley Gardens. Will probably be a little quiet for a while as moving house this week. Lots to dooooooo!

And finally I have been able to get out with the new Olympus camera kit and do a bit of what I bought it all for! I'm still waiting on a diffuser so lighting is a little harsh at present but otherwise I'm very pleased with it! Plus it's smaller and 755g lighter so I can easily shoot it one handed - meaning my other can hold a leaf or flower still on a slightly breezier day. Don't worry Canon I still love you for the other things. So good to get out togging the mini-beasties again though.
