Award-Winning Landscape Photographer in Suffolk

I am Justin Minns, an award-winning professional landscape photographer specialising in atmospheric images of East Anglia and beyond. With over a decade of experience, my work has been commissioned by prestigious clients including the National Trust, the British Museum, and English Heritage. I create evocative images that bring landscapes and stories to life, drawing on deep connections to East Anglia's natural beauty while exploring global locations from Iceland's glaciers to Namibia's deserts. As an experienced photography tutor, I have guided hundreds of photographers through workshops in Suffolk, Norfolk, and international destinations since 2013. My ethical approach prioritises nature's wellbeing, adhering to Nature First principles, and I combine technical expertise with high-quality equipment to capture fleeting moments of light and atmosphere.

My achievements include a Fellowship of the Royal Photographic Society and multiple awards in international photography competitions. I deliver tailored workshops with meticulous planning, small group sizes, and post-workshop support through image review sessions. My publications include guidebooks for landscape photographers and features in diverse media from book covers to jam jars. I maintain strong ties with industry partners like LEE Filters and f-stop camera bags, offering participants exclusive discounts on photographic equipment.

Justine gave a talk to our camera club recently. A interesting and very informative presentation. I purchased his book on the back of it. Not only stunning images but gives settings for each image and lots of information on locations.

Justin's long exposure workshop delivered on all counts. I had little experience of this genre and can find all the detail a bit overwhelming so needed some hands on tuition. As part of a small group, I benefitted greatly from Justin's patient teaching style, and the way he tailored the 1:1 time to suit my needs. The fact he had loan equipment that I could try before making an investment was a big bonus. I am definitely looking for a future workshop with Justin to further enhance my learning.
UPDATE: So impressed with the previous workshop, I managed to get onto another workshop in March 2021

I ordered The Photographing East Anglia book by Justin Minns and it arrived super quick! Love the book, amazing photos and in depth info with directions to the viewpoints.
Ive never visited East Anglia before but its definitely on my list from now on. I looked at booking some workshops with Justin Minns (Im an amateur photographer) but they are sold out. This book seems like it will guide me to great locations to photograph.

Just back from a 1 day long exposure workshop in Essex with Justin. This is my 2nd trip out with Justin. I was extremely happy with the whole experience again. Justin gives such great advice and guidance. The 3 locations were great ! Am happy with the pics that I took and I am sure that I will be booking more workshops in the future. Thanks Justin !

I was on a Workshop with two friends in August (2020) and came away with a good few images. Justin is a very pleasant instructor who quickly understands the level you are at and then helps you in the areas you need. In my case, he helped me on alternative compositions and explaining reasons why you may want to use different vantage points. His local knowledge is excellent which helps with the schedule for teh various locations he wants to take you to. I would definitely recommend a Justin Minns Workshop for any skill level.
