A.J. Hewitt is a professionally trained photographer who spent almost a decade as a forensic photographer with New Scotland Yard. In her debut non-fiction book The Darkroom: Case Files of a Scotland Yard Forensic Photographer, she lifts the veil on a world shrouded in secrecy, until now. She takes readers on an enlightening journey into darkness, murder and mayhem. Hewitt studied photography and design at art college. She subsequently graduated (with distinction) with a Bachelor of Arts (double major) degree. Insatiably curious and a lifelong learner, she is in the final stage of completing a psychology degree. She is a voracious reader, an open water scuba diver and has travelled widely, with her cameras, on four continents. She's a storyteller at heart, whether through her camera lens or with a pencil and paper. Having spent tens of thousands of hours photographing crime scenes, and attending court as an expert witness, she brings a unique insider's perspective to her writing. She envisions turning her vast lived experience of homicides, femicides, and crime scene investigation into more books and a screenplay. Her philosophy in life is simple, be kind and laugh often. www.ajhewittauthor.com
In the quiet aftermath of a murder, crime scene photographer A.J. Hewitt often worked alone, her deft eye focused on the victim. Her evidence has freed the innocent and helped convict the guilty. In her new book, The Darkroom, Hewitt shines a bright light on the often-dark world of crime scene investigations-a must-read for true crime fanatics. -- Kate Winkler Dawson, American Sherlock: Murder, Forensics, and the Birth of American CSI
