MM 4: set of four cards showing the Murray Medallions on the Castle Mona

Patricia Tutt is a photographer and writer. As an architect, now retired, she has always combined her interests, working for forty years as an architectural photographer alongside her other occupations, and is always looking for buildings to photograph. Her photographic oeuvre is wide-ranging, however, and her archive extensive. Please enquire if you are seeking a particular subject. Her book, An Introduction to the Architecture of the Isle of Man, is available in Manx bookshops. Her first book, co-edited with David Alder, was the Metric Handbook, 1978, an architects’ vade mecum of dimensional and other technical data, with over 100,000 copies sold worldwide.

She has always done her own printing, the first twenty years spent joyfully in a wet darkroom. She now photographs using a digital camera and produces carefully-crafted high quality inkjet prints. She is slowly (and painfully) scanning in the best images from her monochrome film work, which includes twelve years in Malawi. With limited opportunity to show her prints, other than in rare exhibitions and through her membership of the Western (IoM) Photographic Society, she has been producing one-off self-published photo books for several years. These cover a wide range of themes including street photography, rendered facades, partners (paired images), dereliction (title – Abandonment, dereliction and decay), Gdansk, and Gaudi – sacred and profane. These are only economically viable when the print company offers a massive discount, so she does not normally offer them for sale, but they are available to view by appointment and prints can be ordered from them.

Prints offered on this website are in three sizes – square, A3 and Panoramic. These sizes, detailed for each print, are inclusive of a white border.

Contact preferred by email or text, rather than phone. Please do not call unannounced at her address, as she is on the ‘endangered’ list and continues to self-isolate.
