BIO

I grew up in the East End of London. My early environment and a passion for images inspired him to pick up a camera at an early age.

I started my working life in Fleet street working for a press agency in the dark room and as a runner presenting news photos to photo editors. At this time fashion was the big thing in London and that lead me into the fashion industry.

I continued to capture my surroundings and it’s people in a deft and unique way. Throughout my life my passion for photography has never waivered. My other passions were for surfing and environment which bought me to Devon where I started a sportswear company. After a successful career in clothing design and sportswear I began taking photographs professionally.

In 2008 I graduated from at Plymouth College of Art with a First Class Honours degree in Photography. Since then my work has been exhibited in galleries around Devon. I am now working as a freelance photographer and building up a significant body of work as a landscape and portrait photographer. My latest work is a combination of these two genres.This gives me a greater option to fulfill my vision as an artist, creating some really exciting portraits.
