Simon Booth has been shooting natural history images for about seven years. During that period he has acquired extensive files of mainly British flora and fauna together with a growing collection of North American wildlife. Simon has a strong artistic bias in his pictures searching for an aesthetically pleasing composition rather than standard record shots.

His eye-catching pictures feature in numerous publications including calendars and magazines. His clients include Bird Watching, Butterfly Conservation, Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust, Trail Magazine, Lancashire Evening Post and Royal Photographic Society Journal. During 1998 he was awarded the ARPS by the Royal Photographic Society as well as achieving a Special Commendation in the highly acclaimed British Gas Wildlife Photographer of the Year.

His future plans include raising his profile in more publications with the intention of eventually turning professional.
