expression through photography
A love of people, our landscape, and the natural world provides Noel’s inspiration. Passion drives him ever closer to perfecting his craft. Maybe along the way his images will evoke emotion and offer a connection.
Noel Bennett BA (Hons) ARPS

Like many people, Noel started taking photographs of family and friends at home, on visits and on holiday. Work justified his first digital camera in 1996, a 1.3 mega pixel compact, used for site surveys.
The significant change came in 2005 when Noel joined the Stafford Photographic Society, helping him tune his craft while making new friends with like minded folk. It provided new goals and improved his knowledge.

Noel became an Associate Member of the Royal Photographic Society (ARPS) in 2013.
Awards started to flow including photo club and magazine competitions, two RPS wins, twice winner of Three Counties Photographic Open Exhibition (Cheshire, Shropshire and Staffordshire), BWPA (British Wildlife Photographic Awards), Kennel Club Dog Photographer of the Year, plus success in ePHOTOzine and so on. Noel says it does tend to give you a buzz and inspire you to keep going.

I gained a BA (Hons) degree in Design 40 odd years ago.
Achieved my ARPS in 2013.
Exhibitions in 2015, 2018, 2022 'Elements'.
