As a necropolis rambler Jeane is dubbed the ‘Headstone Hunter.’ As a photographer she spends much of her time in the cemeteries of Europe capturing angels, tombs, mausoleums, catacombs and vaults. As an artist she creates her interpretation of monuments in oils. As a story teller she reads epitaphs and researches some of the more obscure occupants to bring their stories to life. As a journalist she reports and writes about the architecture of eternity for national newspapers and magazines including It's Fate, National Geographic, Paranormal, Prediction, Chat, Grazia, Fate and Fortune and has been interviewed by the BBC several times. Associate member of The National Federation of Cemetery Friends: http://www.cemeteryfriends.org.uk/index.html
Jeane is a bona fide 'Lady' but only uses her title when helping to raise funds for charity or occasionally blagging entry to somewhere fully booked!

Victorian architect Arthur Beresford Pite (1861 – 1934) is buried in West Norwood cemetery, South London with his family. His grave has sustained much damage, the copper plaques with names and inscriptions are missing and the grave is suffering from subsidence. Pite was responsible for many great buildings both in London and abroad including Burlington Arcade Piccadilly, Christ Church Brixton, Kampala Cathedral Uganda, Holy Trinity church in Clapham and of course 30 Euston Square where I worked for many years. I have set up a fund to carry out the necessary repairs and to restore his monument. All donations to the Pite Memorial Restoration Project, no matter how small, will be gratefully received. Read more about Arthur and see some of his architecture on the Stories page or visit my site for him at: http://www.abpite.silent-cities.com.

Cemetery Photography People ask me why I find cemeteries so fascinating? To me they are filled with interesting monuments and amazing history. Sadly many of the older graves are crumbling and burial space is being reclaimed by local authorities or nature. I like to take photographs and help to preserve a little of our history and heritage for future generations to see. I am also involved with the preservation and restoration of monuments. People from all over the world visit this website and tell me how much they enjoy my photos and the research
I have done on some of the graves occupants so I guess I must be doing something right!
Readings Do you want to know what the future holds? Have a problem, require help in making a decision or would like a connection with loved ones who have passed over? I am a psychic, parapsychologist and counselor with many years of experience. My accurate and confidential readings can provide you with the help, closure and guidance you need. I have been psychic since childhood and do a small number of private readings when time permits. The readings are from photographs which can either be sent or e mailed. I don't limit the number of photographs you can send me or the number of questions you may ask. Each reading takes me approx two hours to prepare and includes past, present and future tarot and some astrology. If you have any questions following the reading or something is not clear, I will answer via e mail
at no further charge. The cost of a reading is £30 GPB. I accept cheques, postal orders or PayPal. Please e mail me for further details.
Investigations I accept bookings to conduct paranormal investigations in London and the South Essex area. I carry out my investigations in a relaxed manner, there is nothing secret and you can be present and participate as much or little as you wish and ask anything. E mail your requirements for further details and fees.
Articles I am an author and also write articles for national newspapers and magazines on the paranormal and related subjects. For media inquiries / bookings etc, please e mail.
Stock Photos Huge photo library available for book covers, illustration etc. My work has been used for magazine covers, advertising posters, CD, displays etc. 1000s of Gothic, angels, Victoriana and monuments, plus other types of photography including birds, animals, urban, nature, architecture and sunsets.
