About Us

We are Tracy and Dan — a husband and wife duo living in Winchester, UK with our 10-year-old daughter, Gracie Bee.

We love macro photography, are blown away by what we can see through a microscope and enjoy noticing the small things.

By launching CUPOTY in 2018, we wanted close-up, macro and micro photography to take centre stage and be celebrated in its own right and its many forms. 

Tracy has worked in the photo magazine industry for more than 20 years, including two as editor of Outdoor Photography and two as features editor at Amateur Photographer. She teaches photography at West Dean College in Sussex, and a variety of workshops too. Tracy is the author of Close-up & Macro Photography, which has been translated into French and Chinese.
