James Booker Blakemore Wellington 1858-1939 originally trained as an architectural draughtsman. In the 1880s, however, an association with George Eastman in New York , drew him into the world of photography. Wellington was regarded as a pictorial photographer of note, while his work was clearly inspired by the paintings of John Constable and Thomas Gainsborough . He was invited to be a member of the Linked Ring Brotherhood in 1892, and was a regular judge on the selection and hanging committee of exhibitions held by the Photographic Society of Great Britain . He was a frequent exhibitor at the Royal Photographic Society, exhibiting from 1886 to at least 1914.

Back in England he became a manager of Kodak 's factory in Wealdstone and was responsible for a number of practical formulas for improving emulsions and developers , one being a negative intensifier containing silver nitrate , ammonium thiocyanate and sodium thiosulphate , and another being dry-collodion plates with improved sensitivity. Around 1895 he and his brother-in-law H. H. Ward set up a photographic paper manufacturing company, Wellington & Ward . The firm later extended into plates and film manufacture. In July 1922 the company acquired Leto Photo Materials (1905) Ltd , and in 1929 was taken over by Ilford Ltd. . Before this Wellington had worked for Elliott & Fry of Chipping Barnet .

All photographs are dispatched in archival sleeves and hard backed envelopes.
