Event photography for IOU and Calderdale Creates

Art, Nature and the Public Realm Symposium – A Creative Gathering in Calderdale
The Art, Nature and the Public Realm Symposium brought together an inspiring mix of artists, makers, and creative thinkers to explore the connection between creativity, landscape, and community. Hosted by Calderdale Creates and IOU Creative, the event sparked conversation, collaboration, and fresh ideas across a day of talks, workshops, and shared experiences.

Capturing the spirit of the day through documentary-style photography, John Steel Photography focused on the real moments – the laughter, the curiosity, and the vibrant energy that filled the room. From thought-provoking discussions to quiet moments of reflection, every image tells the story of a creative community coming together in a truly unique setting.
