About Reflective Images
Reflective Images has been established since 1992 and presently has a catalogue of over
5,000 unique views of 540 plus Welsh towns and villages dating from approx 1890 to the early 1920’s. Contemporary photographers documented this period of great social and economic change using rudimentary equipment with tremendous skill and artistry. Their portrayals of welsh rural and urban life, including street scenes, schools, churches, railways, collieries, dockyards etc form the basis of the Reflective Images Collection.
Reflective Images are true to the original material we use, if the original's
contain spelling mistakes and wrong street names then we leave them
exactly as we find them. In many cases street names change, spellings change but
in some cases it is just human error, which is all part of the history of the
original. But for those of you doing your family history, what we do guarantee,
this is as it was, it is not sanitised, it is not made pretty it is just the
truth.
Whilst we appreciate it is always difficult to judge quality over the
internet, you are more than welcome to come talk to me and see for yourself at
many of the places we exhibit at during the year. The full list of venues can be
found below.
We are continuing to update our collection, but we will not be rushed,
we will only work with good quality originals ensuring you get the best possible
enjoyment from our material.
We are pleased to announce that miniature images of all prints are now available to be seen on this site. This hopefully will give you a better understanding of the finished article.
