Who is Sharon Crean?
I’m a Kiwi who lived in Aussie for 11 years but been based for the past 13 years in Kenya.
I grew up in the era where you used to put film in a camera, wind it along and only have 24 photos you could take. To get them developed you had to take the film to the chemist and pick up the photos a week later. Only then did you discover whether you had any half decent prints.
I discovered the art of photography while living in Sydney, Australia. My wonderful husband, Pete, knew I was interested in it and bought me my first camera - a Canon 30D.
I journeyed through different genres including weddings and events but REALLY love wildlife and landscape photography. I’ve also dabbled in astrophotography.
Being based in Kenya gives me opportunities to get out in our 2007 Land Rover and into the national parks and reserves to capture the amazing wildlife. For me, it’s cheaper than therapy!
My grandfather was a photographer in WW2 and he is my inspiration in bringing creative images into people’s homes, workplaces, schools and businesses.
