Family man Tom Ormerod lives in Bournemouth on the south coast of England. When he’s not standing knee deep in water or doing an impression of a mountain goat on the side of a cliff, he works as an IT Director and specialises in the Education sector.
He has always been around cameras and photography but found his niche in 2017. Over the years Tom has had all kinds of cameras such as a hand-me-down 35mm SLR, early digital cameras, bridge cameras and DSLRs but it was the purchase of his Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II that really sparked his interest in the landscapes around him.
He is well known across the South Coast for his enthusiasm and friendliness, always willing to stop and chat with others, encouraging the social & wellbeing side of photography as much as the creative and technical aspects.
Tom has been an active member of the Guild of Professional Photographers since 2019. He quickly achieved his Qualified status and has since been submitting his work for assessment on a regular basis. He has won Gold, Silver & Bronze awards for his work and has achieved the multiple Photographers Bar awards (for consistently high quality work over a year) in the Natural World and Open categories. In 2021 he was shortlisted for the Image of the year award (Vasco Da Gamma Bridge) and finished as the overall Runner up in the Open category.
We discuss what photography means to him, how he balances a busy career and family life with his photography, his love of the south coast of England and much much more.
I hope you enjoy the show!
