Who is Sea Rae Photography?

Hi, I’m Rae—brand photographer, storyteller, and nature wanderer based in the rugged, soul-stirring scenery of North Wales.

Through Sea Rae Photography, I create emotive, personality-rich imagery for purpose-driven brands, creative entrepreneurs, and soulful individuals—capturing not just how things look, but how they feel. My work blends strategic visual storytelling with a gentle editorial polish, all grounded in natural textures, meaningful moments, and timeless tones.

My love of photography began in the most unexpected place—the British Army—where I learned to navigate fast-paced, high-pressure environments with a camera in hand. From photojournalistic coverage of political figures to published features in major outlets (and even a place in the Soldier’s Charity Calendar), those early experiences shaped the way I see light, movement, and authenticity.

That same lens led me to Southeast Asia, where I volunteered on conservation projects from turtle rescue in Malaysia to elephant re-wilding in the Thai highlands—immersing myself in storytelling that gave voice to causes I deeply care about. I spent five months living among a remote Karen Hill Tribe, documenting everyday life in a place where nature and community are everything.

Today, my focus lies in brand photography, soulful portraits, and storytelling visuals with heart. Whether I’m photographing a quiet moment of connection, a flat lay that brings a brand to life, or a pet that means the world to someone—I believe in the quiet magic of images that resonate.

My work has most recently been exhibited at The Glasgow Gallery of Photography, and I continue to create both client and personal projects that draw on my love of the land, light, and all things emotive.

Have a look around—explore my portfolio and services—and let’s create something thoughtful and beautiful together.
