Personal Statement.
My first camera was a Kodak Instamatic, inherited at the age of 12, and photography has inspired me ever since. Growing up, my photographic heroes were, and still are, Beaton, Bailey and Don McCullin, to name but three. They fired my imagination and opened my mind to the endless possibilities of light, colour, composition, and what can be achieved with a camera and a desire to capture one's own view of the world.
I feel so lucky that I find almost everything visually interesting, and the beauty that surrounds us is a perpetual inspiration. I try to capture and translate this into my images and constantly strive to push my work to new heights. I'd like to think that my images will not only satisfy a client’s brief, but also enhance their initial vision, by drawing on my years of experience, and love of art and the visual world. My aim is to produce harmonious results of the highest calibre, and I'd like to think that whatever I photograph I try to be creative and interesting, always seeking beauty and truth in my subject.
I do shoot in studio, but love working on location with the opportunities and spontaneity that it can bring for mood and emotion. In general, human interaction is what makes me tick and collaborating on a project I find so rewarding. I aim to bring atmosphere to an interior or when photographing a product, individuality and connection to a portrait, and a love and passion for the subject when it's food and drink in the frame.
I shoot here in the UK but have travelled quite extensively abroad, a wonderful perk of the job. I'm adaptable and easy to work with and always want to make my client happy, that's my ultimate goal. So please do get in touch and let's have a conversation.
