I got hold of my first camera many years ago on my eighth birthday and have been hooked ever since. By steadily progressing through an improving series of camera systems until the early 90s when I ended up on the Canon EOS system, and have remained with it since, building up knowledge in various areas of photography over the first few years.
When I eventually settled on the areas of most interest to me, I found myself working mostly with landscapes, historic architecture and aviation. Another decade on and I once again began to experiment in new areas, this time focusing largely on people and this is where I developed a love for working with new people and getting the best out of them, photographically, that I could.
Since then i have continued to experiment more with still life studio work and combining my love of landscape and architectural photography with portraiture, using the available lighting wherever possible to create a natural and relaxed feel to the photographs. Yet I always return to my origins, feeling the urge to spend a week on an island or in a scenic area of the mainland.
My goal for the next decade? To continue improving - to continue taking photos my clients love - to continue providing tuition that actually helps people to improve their own photography - and to cotinue playing with high end photographic equipment, because it's just so much fun!
