Welcome to my site! If you have come this far then you will have seen some of my work already and I hope you like what you see. To give you a bit of background I started my career in Staffordshire as a Press Photographer moving on to Child Portraiture throughout the UK. After moving to Scotland I worked in a couple of studios and moved into Wedding and high-end Portraiture before moving to Surrey and after a short spell with an already established studio, I founded my own business in 2004 as a Portrait, Commercial and PR photographer.
Since then I have undertaken assignments in the Caribbean, Africa, Europe and throughout the UK, have worked with a great many charities, covered hundreds of weddings and studio shoots, shot countless Celebrities and worked with numerous magazines and PR agencies to provide natural images with impact, emotion and creativity.
Whilst I am predominantly a 'people' photographer I have covered many other types of shoots and have a varied knowledge of my subject allowing me to turn my hand to anything! A landmark in my career was covering the Royal Variety Performance between 2010 and 2021 as an official photographer for the Royal Variety Charity. Lately I have worked with the Surrey Lieutenancy, covering BEM awards, events and many Royal visits.
Over time I started to diversify further, adding a Public Relations service to my business and undertaking more design work, I also started to interview and write features for a regional magazine - Surrey Life until its closure in July 2022 and my photography often made it to the cover! I continue to write my book 'Tales of a Full-Time Flasher' but it is a slow process and is on hold while other projects are in the frame and finally I am now offering photography tuition - it was an inevitable outcome! After eighteen difficult months in a world besieged by Covid-19, I moved to Cheshire and spread my working time now between there and Surrey. In 2023 I rebranded to put more emphasis on the PR and Media side of the business and the different types of work that that entails.
So that is it in a nutshell, if you need to know more then do drop me an email, I believe in providing a personal reliable service and will do my best to provide you with exactly what you need.
