James Sheppard was a talented photographer, artist and writer, and an all-round amazing person.
I think it’s fair to say that everyone who knew James liked him. He was kind, laid back, patient, funny, creative, and smart, and had a calming presence that made everyone feel at ease. He was a talented artist, photographer and writer, an incredible cook, and loved music, gaming and finding a good bargain. Whenever he picked up a new hobby he threw himself into it entirely, always smiling. He packed a lot into the 30 years we were lucky enough to have him. We all just wish he had more.
In April 2021 James passed away unexpectedly at the age of 30 from an undetected heart condition, with no warning or prior symptoms.
We’re lucky to have so much to remember James by, and this website brings together some of his work while raising awareness and money for Cardiac Risk in the Young.
