Photo Series I: Cotswolds Fall 2026

I share plenty of photos and video over on my Instagram feed, but those are often overlayed with text or woven into reels. My film photographs however (my first and deepest creative love), have been somewhat forsaken over the years, without a proper space to let them stand alone, uncluttered.

So I have decided to start regularly sharing my film scans here. I’m hoping this will not only inspire me to shoot film more often, but will invite you to step away from the noise and distractions of social media, and enjoy the singular act of taking in one still photograph at a time. Like in the olden days of the early 2000’s!

Here then are a dozen photos shot on 35mm film (Portra) using My Nikon F100 while in the Cotswolds during September 2025, while leading a Women’s Walking Retreat.

I hope you enjoy this analog adventure and share your favourites in the comments below!

Horse-spotting is one of my favourite things about walking in the Cotswolds. This was shot on the walk from Stow-on-the-Wold to the Fir Farms Vending Machines near Lower Slaughter.

Visiting Thyme, a country hotel & spa set on an historic estate.

Early morning sunshine on recently harvested fields near the Fir Farms Vending Machines.

One of my guests on a first day’s walk from Fulbrook to Minster Lovell. This section is near the ancient village of Widford.

Evening views from the driveway at the Stanton Guildhouse, which we rent out for two nights on our Women’s Walking Retreat.

Walking through fields of sheep is a normal part of exploring the Cotswolds on foot. This was shot on our last walk from Snowshill to Broadway, just as we began our descent into the bustling town of Broadway.

Morning light on massive gates near an equestrian center on the walk from Stow-on-the-Wold to Lower Slaughter.

Gracious local riders who stopped for a photo in the village of Lower Slaughter.
