About Artist

Alan Young

Alan Young is a UK-based photographer with a primary focus on wildlife and nature. His work is rooted in patience, observation, and respect for the natural world, often created from field hides and close study of animal behaviour. Alongside wildlife, his practice also includes macro and documentary photography. Alan’s approach prioritises authenticity and storytelling, seeking moments that feel quiet, honest, and considered rather than overtly dramatic. His images reflect a long-standing interest in light, form, and the relationship between subject and environment.
