- Peter Watson (photographer)
Peter Watson (1952- ) is an English landscape photographer best known for his large format photography of rural Britain.
Background:
Born in Wallasey, England in February 1952 Watson’s photographic career started in his teenage years when he photographed and produced his own black & white prints in an improvised darkroom. They were sold in a local gallery and this early success encouraged him to pursue a career as a photographer. He studied art and graphic design and in 1993 obtained a diploma in photography from the New York Institute of Photography.
Before becoming a full time professional landscape photographer Watson worked in advertising and commercial photography. He now teaches workshops and produces practical photography books and articles. He is also a collector of fine wine and has a diploma in wine appreciation and tasting.
