I approach photography as a people person. It’s my job to make you feel totally at ease in front of the camera. 

But photography wasn’t my first love, it was music.

I left Music College in 1997 and immediately started playing in a band. We gigged all over the UK and beyond and more often than not, I had a camera with me.

Like most photographers, I started out by sharing some of my images. I documented my music career through photos and before long, I got enquiries about taking on paid photography work.

When my daughter was born in 2013 I decided that local photography might be a better idea. Photography was kicking my brain into gear, teaching me new skills and refining others. 

One thing I enjoyed about performing and teaching music was meeting and learning about new people. I still get to do this as a portrait photographer but often on a deeper level, when someone is in front of my camera.

If my approach sounds like what you’re looking for, I’d love to hear from you. 

I’m here to help you bring out the best in you and your business.
