Hi,
In this sentence 'in turn' means 'as a result of''.
Basically William is saying that his philosophical view of the world greatly influences his photography.

"In turn" generally has to do with sequence or order. In this case, what it basically means is "then." Think of it as every else has put it, though: it means that it creates a result. It's a cause and effect expression, as nanren888 said.

I have to agree with Jura, "in turn" = "results in" but maybe with a softer meaning.
I think "in turn" has more a sense of A leads to B. (or A in this case subsequently leads to B) There is a sense of cause & effect, but maybe not as strong as A always results in B, maybe a little lighter than "results in".
