Jayne Lloyd (self-portrait) Photograph of Jayne, a white woman against a wooden panelled wall painted white. Jayne has chin-length wavy black hair with a fringe and bright red streaks underneath to each side, black winged eyeliner, pale skin and red lipstick. She is wearing a black top.

I’m a photographer with a background in arts and heritage. I like to explore people’s relationships with unique environments and I’m particularly interested in recording small details and unusual processes. My work includes documentary, portraits and interiors and my favourite projects are when I go behind the scenes, glimpsing into worlds I might not otherwise see.

I studied photography at the University of Westminster, initially worked in picture libraries, including at The Museum of the Home in London, and worked as Projects Director at Shutter Hub, giving me an understanding of the unique needs of arts and non-profit organisations.

My clients include Firstsite, The Goldsmiths’ Company, Historic Royal Palaces and The National Archives. My work has been exhibited at Charles Dickens Museum and St Martin-in-the-Fields in Trafalgar Square, London. I was awarded Arts Council England funding to support my personal practice documenting cultural community groups.

I’m based in Essex, East Anglia and work across London and the UK.

AWARDS

In 2023 I was awarded a Developing Your Creative Practice (DYCP) award from Arts Council England. Supported using public funding by Arts Council England. Find out more about Arts Council England at https://www.artscouncil.org.uk/ I used this period of development to new skills, get guidance from other professionals and take time to experiment with new ideas, which included building this portfolio website and embarking on new documentary projects.
