Lynne began her career as a photojournalist after obtaining an MA in photography as a mature student. She was awarded an Arts Council England grant to document sport and arts co-existence projects in the Middle East, using the camera to create dialogue. Her work ultimately became an exhibition which toured the UK. Lynne has a keen interest in wildlife conservation, and won an award to work on an Earthwatch project in Virginia USA, documenting their research.

With a love of travel, Lynne went on to combine her photography with writing, producing her own travel features for a variety of lifestyle magazines, beginning with the Yorkshire Post lifestyle magazine Absolute Leeds, where she had her own travel pages. She has since contributed features to print press, in-flight magazines, and various websites.

Presently, she has her own monthly travel pages in a Yorkshire lifestyle magazine, and also contributes to various websites. A recent Viking cruise feature was also published in World of Cruising Magazine. Lynne is a member of the British Guild of Travel Writers.
