The Touring Eye: Unique Iris Photography Wherever You Are
Introducing The Touring Eye, a unique mobile photography service specialising in iris photography. Founded by Elton Cilliers, a seasoned photographer and digital nomad, The Touring Eye combines a passion for travel with a commitment to capturing the intricate beauty and absolute uniqueness of the human iris.
Bringing Iris Photography To Your Neighbourhood
What sets The Touring Eye apart is its mobility and personalised approach. Travelling across the UK and Europe in a 1996 Hymer motorhome affectionately named ‘Star’, Elton brings his portable studio directly to clients’ doorsteps. This means you can experience a professional iris photography session in the comfort of your own home, office, or at a local pop-up event in your community.

Elton’s journey is more than just a business venture; it’s a long-term photography project aimed at documenting the world through images and videos. By choosing The Touring Eye, you’re not only receiving a unique and personalised piece of art but also supporting a broader mission to inspire others to pursue their dreams of travel and alternative lifestyles.
Iris Photography and Portrait Photography events near you!
As I travel around the UK, Europe and further abroad, I will be offering pop up events for both iris and portrait photography sessions.
These will typically take place in a local business premises, village hall or photographic studio.
In addition, I will also be providing 1:1 photoshoots at your home, office or nearby public space like a park or woodlands.
You can stay informed about upcoming locations and events by subscribing to The Touring Eye’s newsletter. This ensures you’ll have the opportunity to book a session when Elton’s mobile studio arrives in your area.
