Welcome to my website, I am Kara Jayne and i am based in Market Rasen, Lincolnshire. I am born and bred Lincolnshire although i have lived in North Yorkshire, Cumbria & Lancashire. It was whilst living and working in Cumbria that I got into photography.

I was working in Ambleside as an Assistant Manager and decided that i wanted to take up a hobby and learn something new. September 2019 I got my first Nikon camera. I had no idea what i was doing but i knew i loved taking photos and thought it can not be that hard. It wasn’t until i got the camera that i realise how complicated it actually is.

I got in touch with the local college to see if i could get onto the Photography course but it was fully booked up. I am too impatient to wait a year, so i thought it can not be that hard to learn. I brought myself the Nikon guide so i could learn the camera and used YouTube and Twitter to learn about the different settings and photography rules. It didn’t take me long before i dared to use manual mode on the camera and set up the camera to the settings i thought i needed.

Fast forward a few years I started getting my photos printed on Canvas and put them in a local café to sell. At this point i thought lets expand my products and i started doing Greeting Cards and Mugs. I started doing Crafts fairs and even had one of my photos printed in a local calendar and another photo used for the Queens Jubilee Celebrations in a local village.

In November 2022, I moved back to Lincolnshire. Unsure where my photography was going to lead me as i really focused on Landscape Photography when i was in Cumbria & Yorkshire. I went through a spell where i just took photos of anything and everything just as i was learning a new style of Photography. Then one day My Family and Myself went to RAF Coningsby to watch the Typhoon fly. This was my first experience of this and i loved it!! That is when my Aviation photography started. I then joined all the groups on Facebook to see when they were flying and kept a look out for The Red Arrows as RAF Waddington isn’t that far from where i live. I now mainly focus on Aviation & Wildlife but i do still do a bit of Landscape photography. I have had one of my sunset photos on BBC Look North and been contacted by a RAF Pilot as he’s seen my photos of the jet he was flying. I am planning on doing some Craft Fairs in the future, so keep a watch out on my social media for updates.

Thank you for supporting me and taking the time to read my story and look at my website.
