John Dillwyn Llewelyn was a Welsh botanist, scientist, and early photographer. He was a pioneer of photography in Wales and one of the first photographers to experiment with the new medium in the 1840s. He used the daguerreotype process to produce portraits and landscapes. Llewelyn was also an avid botanist and made many photographs of plants and flowers. His photographs were known for their sharpness and clarity, and he was considered one of the most proficient photographers of his time. He was also a member of the Royal Society of Arts and the Photographic Society (later the Royal Photographic Society) in London.
