About me...
Photography began for me after my parents gave me a basic Minolta 35 mm compact when I was 12 years old. I've been a photographer ever since.
Being visually creative has always been one of my biggest loves, from a very early stage in my life I have had a strong passion for art, drawing and photography, whether it be painting, drawing or design.
Photography at first was just a hobby, i like to have a camera with me still at all times. Around 2005 my involvement in motor sport lead to some published & website work and then from there further into to the modified car industry working with many companies that took me around Europe and the United States for work.
As well as being a photographer I have worked as a professional Designer & Art-worker since 1996, and being an expert with Photoshop for many years after graduating from Art & Design college. Since then i have worked in a variety of positions based around design print and publishing industry from a high street printers, magazines to an international finance company.
Although i enjoy all aspects of photography, in recent years I have specialized in model portraits and portfolios from both studio or on location. I am more then happy working for both new and experienced models, and take huge pride in the way i do my work, how I treat models I hope is the cornerstone of my success.
I can say with confidence that every model I have worked with regards the experience as positive creative and enjoyable, and this is something I aim to maintain.
I also love to take scenery and landscape photos, Cityscapes or sunsets, trying to capture a sight or memory or that unique moment. This is how my passion started out like most people snapping on holiday, and I am sure it will stay a obsession of mine for all of my life.
