About Me

Originally a self-taught photographer, I have worked in creative industries for over fifteen years. Starting out in the music industry, where I provided start-up support to businesses ranging from independent labels to emerging fashion brands, I continued working in the arts by way of roles in support, finance, and management in the theatrical industry.

My passion for creativity preceded working life in those fields; as photographer of some twenty years, my earliest memory of having a camera in my hands stem from a family holiday in Southport around the early 1980’s. Like many families of the day, holiday trips were a relative luxury and, as such, my parents borrowed a neighbour’s camera to capture memories from the trip.

Being entrusted with it, I went out exploring the local area, siblings in tow, and used up the entire film on street photography: pictures of strangers, lampposts, doorways, and anything that I found remotely interesting. Less than impressed, my parents bemoaned my artistic impulses when the film was developed, since the entire spool was devoid of any “holiday snaps”.

Since then, I have gone on to study photography, but my artistic impulses are the same and will snap anything that tickles my brain.

Why portraits and brand photography? I love hearing people stories and find that during a shoot you find out so much about someone and I like helping them share their story to their audience.
