KEITH MORRIS IN CONVERSATION WITH EMYR YOUNG.
ABERYSTWYTH, WEST WALES, JUNE 2015

Keith Morris (1958 - 2019)
(released on the Ffoton podcast 31 July 2015)

Keith Morris was a commercial photographer who lived and worked in the seaside town of Aberystwyth.

His main area of focus was the commercial and news market, deriving a significant amount of income from stock photography. Keith used his expertise, knowledge and understanding of the market to great effect. By his own admission, he did not travel far and worked primarily within a 20-mile radius of Aberystwyth and his success in commercial stock photography saw him facilitate courses on how to deliver it in an increasingly difficult and competitive area of photography. His personal work was also geared with the commercial market in mind: he had a long-held passion for working with actors and dancers in theatre and, if the opportunity arose, stills photography for television were also another source of income. Telling stories was part and parcel of Keith’s raison d'être and he enjoyed creating scenarios using actors and models but always with the commercial market in mind.

His enthusiasm for his trade was boundless. Sit back and enjoy Keith at his loudest best!
