-about you:
-My name is Ella Ruth and I am a self-taught freelance photographer about to turn 21. I live in England, dividing my time between two cities and a town. When I'm not taking photographs I can be found cooking, making scrapbooks and wandering around the hills.

-What is it that attracts you the most of what you have around you?
-Magical moments in everyday places - pretty shadows, dappled light, bold colours in nature... I'm most attracted to things which are natural but look as though they came straight from someone's wild imagination.
-Tell us about your experience as photographer what did it give you?
-It has definitely given me confidence and it has changed the way I see the world. I feel like I can see a beauty in almost anything now and I love that photography gives you the power to make a record of that beauty and share it.
