Welcome to Lou Horton photography

I'm a Devon-based photographer with a love of the pattern, form and palette of the natural world. I specialise in images of nature and landscapes, and this site offers a growing collection of fine art prints and commercial images.

Fine art prints

I aim to provide beautiful, long-lasting photographic prints at an accessible price without compromising on quality. I create my photographic prints with care to ensure they possess clarity, depth of colour and long life. They are available on a variety of professional papers for a choice of finish, as either unmounted prints, in conservation-grade mounts or ready-framed.

Visit my prints page for further information on print quality and choices, and to browse my collection.

Stock images

I offer images for commercial use under two licencing models: rights managed and royalty free. Visit my stock page to find out more about both and to browse my stock collection.
