-----------------------

My goal for this site is to show a selection of projects, both commissioned and personal, to convey the style and theme of my photographic practice.

I first became interested in photography when I was about 14. My dad was an art teacher and they had a darkroom at his school that I was able to use after hours or occasionally at the weekend. School hadn't inspired me and my dad sensed that I needed a creative outlet, so he taught me how to process film and use the enlargers.

The mixture of not really knowing how things were going to turn out was exciting and addictive, and with practice, I really got the hang of it! Watching images appear on the paper in the developer having the control to stop or over process, enhance the contrast, dodge and burn, solarise was all together quite an impactful experience for someone who had felt lost at school.

I went on to study photography at BTEC level through a local regional college, then earned a BA(Hons) in Photographic Communication at Falmouth Art College. 

Over the last 15 years or so I have built up a client base in the world of architecture and design. I’m very fortunate to have been commissioned to photograph projects all over the world, working for some amazingly talented people.
