‘We set up Unique + United up to use photography help people to see, feel and celebrate more in themselves everyday, to allow people to take some time out to consider what it is about their lives that they’re truly grateful for and to create artworks that help them to, focus on and, celebrate this every day. Our mission is to help people to see all that they have, rather than what they have not.

Through doing this we want to help create a healthier and happier society and impact families mental health in a positive way because we believe that everybody believes to see, feel and celebrate the best in themselves every day!’
