Chiz Dakin is an award-winning photographer who has been carrying a camera ever since her fingers got big enough to press the shutter button. With a keen interest in travel and all things adventurous outdoors (such as walking, mountaineering, ski-touring, cycling, sea kayaking and diving) it seemed to make sense to combine the two and become a travel photographer with a particular specialism in outdoor adventure activities.
Nominally based on the fringes of the Peak District, key regions covered include UK (especially Derbyshire), the Alps, Madeira and Australia, but she's happy to travel almost anywhere for a good image! Her images of the inaugural Madeira Walking Festival have recently won her the 2008 Outdoor Writers and Photographers Guild Award for Excellence in Photography.
