Tanya Houghton is a landscape and earth driven photographer based in London, UK, she works on a wide range of projects; editorial, commercial, exhibition and curatorial and holds a position as Associate lecturer at Goldsmiths University. Her work has seen recognition from various awarding bodies such as the British Journal of Photography and the D&AD.
Tanya’s focus is on the remote wild spaces around the world, drawn to these places she is curious about the people who live in, experience and protect these lands. It is her curiosity that motivates her to seek out these stories, recording the connections that are made in these landscapes, she hopes to instil a sense of rewilding, inspiring others to move, go outside and explore.
