About Glyn Davies Photo Artist Ltd


Founded in 1987, but following a three year degree in Photography at Harrow in London, Glyn Davies Photo Artist Ltd has 40 years experience as a fine art and commercial photographic artist, and supplies limited edition photographic prints and images to discerning fine-art buyers throughout world. Glyn's unique photographic art gallery is based at the artisan shopping village of Cei Llechi (Slate Quay) on the quayside in the historic castle town of Caernarfon.

The gallery houses a huge choice genuinely personal landscape images for customers seeking inspirational or emotive photographic edition prints. From his gallery in Caernarfon or through his websites, Glyn supplies businesses and private customers with a large range of creative imagery and can supply these mounted and framed if required, ready for wall display. Glyn is a fully qualified and highly experienced photographic artist and printer.

The prints are all produced using archival inks and cotton rag papers with an estimated lifespan of over 200 years. The colours are rich and accurate and consistency is excellent throughout the edition. The prints are available in a range of sizes as long as they are not 'out of edition'. Prints are available from the Glyn Davies website and of course from the actual gallery at the Cei Llechi shopping centre in Caernarfon, Gwynedd.

Glyn Davies Photo Artist Ltd is directed by Glyn Davies himself, a professional photographer and artist since 1987, but also a graduate in Photography at University of Westminster (Harrow Campus, London). Before that he completed a 1 year Arts Foundation Course at the Falmouth School of Art in Cornwall. He is professionally qualified with the Association of Photographers (London) and has had numerous exhibitions, TV and Radio appearances and also won numerous International Awards. He taught photography part time, at the University of Wales for 14 years. He has now published 5 books two of which were gifted by the UK Prime Minister to Prince William and Katherine Middleton for their Royal Wedding.

The Glyn Davies Gallery has a large customer base, located throughout the UK, but also many international buyers. His images are purchased not just for display, but as an investment, and this is the result of his eminence after many years as a practising professional photo artist. His work is held in public as well as private collections and has been purchased by several large corporations and institutions such as the BBC, North Wales Fire Service, University of Wales, Williamson Art Gallery and the Management Development Centre, Bangor. He has customers from Australia to the USA.

The company is run by Glyn Davies BA (Hons) who has been involved in art and photography for many years. Glyn Davies is highly skilled and experienced having run his business since leaving college in 1987. He has seen at least two major recessions over the years and has survived them both without major issues. The Glyn Davies photographic brand has become nationally synonymous with honest, soulful, atmospheric landscape photography.

I have bought several of Glyn's books, many cards and am a regular visitor to his gallery to view and enjoy the sheer quality of his work. In a world of seemingly endless available imagery, it's a delight to see inspired, consummate and first-class observations realised in the best fine art print media available. This is the difference and to visit his gallery and see for yourself is well worth it. The sheer attention to detail shines through. Although Glyn has become very well known nationally and internationally for his landscapes, landscape nudes and portraiture, he has an accomplished background in many areas of commercial photography as well as lecturing in the subject. Wherever Glyn turns his lens and in any genre, the same independent and exciting way of seeing consistently shines through his work. I highly recommend his work to any potential customer and if you can, visit him in person as you'll be inspired by his passion for his subject!

I bought a copy of Glyn's book "Welsh Light" which is full of stunning images, and I can fully recommend. I consider his landscape photography to be outstanding.

I have purchased a print of Elidyr Fawr, a book of his wonderful photos (the one gifted by David Cameron to Prince William and Kate M on their wedding) and a set of wintry greetings cards. His eye as a photographer is exceptional. I have dropped one star on Value for Money but I disagree with your label, I would replace "Better than expected" with "Reassuringly pricey"! You get top quality in all aspects, print and paper quality etc, and that don't come cheap.

I have 11 works of art by Glyn Davies, I'm constantly trying to find more wall space to accommodate more! Glyn always goes that extra mile to help and assist. A visit to Glyns' Oriel gallery is always an emotional roller coaster as my son and I choose another picture to adorn our home. Many many thanks Glyn!

Glyn Davies was commissioned to undertake a photo shoot on behalf of Seafish for promotional material regarding shellfish production. Having viewed the photographs taken, I decided that the photographs not only represented the way shellfish farming was undertaken but also captured the essence of the work. I purchased my own image to hang at home and subsequently bought 2 more differing images as gifts. Those that know me cant believe that the images are of me at work. Those that don't have commented that images capture a working scene as in days gone by.

I bought the most gorgeous huge print from the gallery in Menai. It hangs in my lounge and never fails to get comments. It reminds me of my homeland and is my link to the sea - being based in the Midlands now. Glyn's work is beautiful and inspiring.

I have purchased several stunning pieces of photography from Glyn for myself or as presents and they are magnificent. Glyn has an amazing talent.

Bought an A1 limited edition from Glyn Davies's studio last year as the culmination of a major house refurbishing project. The image, 'Beautiful, Silent Danger' is striking and everyone who sees it comments how well it fits with out setting. The service we had from Glyn was exceptional, and he was personally very attentive to our needs as we prevaricated for hours over which image to choose!

I fell in love with a print displayed in the shop window and was lucky enough to receive it as a birthday gift. "Nant Gwytheyrn - Lle i frenhinoedd a chariadon", is a beautiful print and I'll treasure it for years to come.

We have family portraits taken and they were so good it was a struggle to chose which ones to have. Glyn is very enthusiastic and that shows in the photo's.

I have purchased some prints from Mr Davies and his work is of a very high and talented standard in my opinion. The shop is excellent for purchasing unique gifts for someone special and occassions such as landmark birthdays or special celebrations. There are some remarkable photo's of the island's coast line and we are lucky to have such a quality service on Anglesey and I hope the business thrives in years to come.
