About Therese Brown

Therese Brown was born in Colombo, Sri Lanka. At a young age, she moved with her family to the UK. Therese founded and ran her own business before turning to photography.

A year spent travelling overland across the continent of Africa changed her focus from commercial enterprise to working with adults with special needs. Her ability to connect with people is highlighted in how she manages to capture her subjects in a natural and engaging way.

A keen amateur photographer who enjoys travelling to more remote areas of the world, Therese actively seeks to connect with local people. She spends time getting to know their culture and environment, whilst documenting their stories.

In the coming months she will be publishing more of her images and projects, bringing to light the simple beauty of the ordinary. Her strong belief, in her own words, is quoted below:

"Photography for me transcends continents, cultures, religions, politics.... it connects us all in a way that is seamless."
