Jerome Whittingham
I’m a documentary photographer, podcast and audio features producer, reporter and interviewer.
I have a wide interest in social issues, culture, conservation and the environment, and the arts. I regularly report on topics including: social enterprise, the third sector, community development, environmental issues, nature and conservation, food sustainability, and arts development and production.
I have been commissioned photographer to Back to Ours and Appetite (2 Arts Council England, Creative People and Places project), The Big Malarkey Festival (Hull Libraries and the James Reckitt Trust), Humber Mouth Literature Festival (Hull City Council and Wrecking Ball Press), Contains Strong Language (BBC and Wrecking Ball Press), Heads Up Theatre Festival (E52 Theatre and Battersea Arts), the Amy Johnson Festival, HullBID (Business Improvement District), Artlink’s Square Peg disability and diversity project.
My special commissions have been exhibited in several galleries and public spaces:
Widely and regularly appearing in print, my photographs have been published in The Guardian, The Yorkshire Post, Hull Daily Mail, The Big Issue (North), The Metro, and many trade and voluntary sector publications.
I’ve been a regular guest and contributor to local BBC and community radio stations. I’ve also recorded a number of oral history and community audio podcast projects, for example Contemporary Voices: Africans in Yorkshire.
I am a freelance member of the Arts Marketing Association, and a longterm member of a-n The Artists Information Company.
Stoke-on-Trent, North Staffordshire, is my current base, but I flit about the Midlands, the North, and London.
Great to have your interest!
