Gill's professional career in photography has spanned over 25 years.

“I knew from the age of fourteen I wanted to be a photographer… growing up in Sheffield in the late 60's and 70's I knew it wouldn't be easy.”

Qualifying in 1984 with a HND in photography “I started my career as a travel photographer”, later setting up a commercial studio in London to specialise in portraiture.

“The skill to photographing people is to capture that moment when their true character emerges.”

During this time she won numerous national awards for her photographic work 12 years ago Gill moved to Sussex and into the field of fine art photography.

“I love working with light… its colours and intensities can shape an image into something quite unique.”

Today Gill is one of the country's leading commercial fine art photographers. She is also founder of several Galleries and is presently the director of Brighton Fishing Quarter Gallery.

“Photography is the art form of our generation and it has now come of age.”
