"The sea plays an important role in her work and is often her subject- the sheer force of it as it crashes against harbour wall, or bay, or break-water, is a power Tammaro is keen to capture."
Interestingly, Tammaro sees another side to her favourite subject, a gentleness- the serenity of a calm sea, once inside the sanctity of The Royal Harbour at Ramsgate, as it nestles beneath the majestic yachts, shows a striking contrast with other images that portray an angry, passionate sea. This apparent dichotomy is enhanced by Tammaro's admiration of her subject, no matter what it's mood may be.

We are proud to add Tammaro's work to our portfolio in 2008 and look forward to working with her over the coming months.

The images created by the East-Kent based Photographer, Jo Tammaro, pay homage to the often rugged beauty of the coastlines that can be found on three sides of her hometown. The sea plays an important role in her work and is often her subject- the sheer force of it as it crashes against harbour wall, or bay, or break-water, is a power Tammaro is keen to capture. The fact that she does capture its, so eloquently, is testament to her skill as an image-maker.
