about me


You may have seen some of my photography in a shop window, on a menu at your favourite restaurant, popping up on your social media feed, or in the pages of the local press. I’ve established myself as a high quality, versatile and visually recognisable commercial photographer, working extensively with both local and national businesses and professionals.

My road as a creative first took shape over 17 years ago, with a strong background in graphic design and marketing. I'm naturally a thinker, a researcher, and someone who can look at a new project or an existing style, and understand how to work with it, and how to achieve the desired results. Through good communication, I will work with you to ensure you end up with not only great looking photographs, but the perfect assets for what you are trying to achieve. Don't hesitate to get in touch with any enquiries you might have.
