About me

I have my mother to thank for my passion in photography She bought me my first camera when I was just eleven.

I remember buying my first 35mm camera, (second-hand) a couple of years later. I joined the school camera club and spent hours in the school darkroom, learning how to mix chemicals, process the negatives and develop the prints.

In my late teens I left my hometown of Brighton to live in London working for the BBC film department and I bought my first single lens reflex (SLR) camera.

Digital has transformed my photography in recent years, as it has for most long-serving photographers; and long hours in the darkroom have been replaced with long hours at the computer, fine-tweaking images to get the very best out of each shot.

Whether it's the bride getting ready before the wedding, the aunt raising her glass in toast, or the young child filled with laughter... it's people I love to photograph.  Capturing that moment when they are caught off-guard is priceless.

I believe the right photograph can make everyone look fantastic... and that is my job
