Hummingbird's Photography

I am a professional photographer specialising in portraiture. Spearheading 'Hidden Figures of the South West'. I am also an Enterprise Scholar.

Fuelled by an unhealthy tea addiction and entrepreneurial determination, I have spent over ten years studying and working in the Photographic industry and hold various qualifications in the field. In 2021 I graduated with a First Class Honours in BA Film, Photography and Media (Ent) from the University Of Leeds. I am often drawn to projects that make a difference. This includes a collection of por

traits titled 'The Sunflower People' that gave Cancer survivors a chance to feel beautiful and tell their story. I specialise in Portrait Photography but my expertise extends into many nuances within the creative industry. My broad creative skill set and substantial knowledge base gives me the tools to make your experience, and the resulting photographs, the best they can possibly be.

On the end pages of 'Hidden Figures of the South West,' an illustrated map by Katy Harrald is there to be explored.

Katy is a pencil artist and illustrator based in Dorset, who is featured in the book and was commissioned to create the first 'Hidden Figure Map.'

Every time I think an idea is too outlandish, I encounter a creative who effortlessly brings it to life.

Seeing the map is even better in person, so don't forget to order 'Hidden Figures of the South West' via my website (www.hummingbirdsphotography.com) or waterstones.com.

A man truly deserving of becoming a centenarian. The number of individuals whose lives continue to be influenced by the programs and research that David Attenborough has influenced is insurmountable. We can only hope that world leaders eventually listen to the lessons he has taught us!

Hidden Figures of Yorkshire & the Humber is a photographic and storytelling journey celebrating the people whose skills, knowledge, and quiet dedication shape the characters of the region.

From rural crafts and coastal livelihoods to conservation work and creative trades, this new collection shines a light on individuals working in under-recognised professions that are deeply rooted in place, tradition, and community. Each portrait is accompanied by words from the Hidden Figures themselves, offering a rare and personal insight into lives often overlooked but essential to our cultural landscape.

Photographer Caitlin Pharoah continues her acclaimed Hidden Figures series by travelling across Yorkshire and the Humber to document these remarkable individuals, capturing not only what they do, but why it matters.

At a time when many traditional skills are at risk of disappearing, this book serves as both a celebration and a record — preserving stories, sharing knowledge, and inspiring future generations.

By pre-ordering Hidden Figures of Yorkshire & the Humber, you are helping bring these stories to life and supporting the continuation of this community-focused project.

Each year, skills and knowledge passed down through millennia disappear before they can be retained for the future.

Together, we can change the ending of this story.
