About Simon Urwin | Award-winning Travel Photographer & Writer

I’m an award-winning travel photographer & writer whose work has been recognised by the likes of Nikon, the Association of Photographers, Taylor Wessing, National Geographic Traveller and the British Guild of Travel Writers.
Travel has always fascinated me and I've visited the four corners of the world in search of naturally beautiful, often hidden photographic stories which shine a different light on a country, and allow for a deeper understanding of its culture and traditions.
On any shoot my background as a former TV executive and creative director at a digital agency means that I’m a natural problem solver, accustomed to managing complex, ambitious projects and delivering beautiful work, no matter how challenging the circumstances.
