I’ve been a photographer for over 30 years. Part of that time as a professional, part as an obsessional. Always and throughout, photography has remained my one true passion.
Although formally trained and qualified in the visual arts, I've seen many different roles over the years. All of this diversion was a wonderful learning experience, perhaps a necessity, in leading me back to where I find myself today. I've come full circle, returning to what I love best: Photography.
As a Fine Art photographer I like to be on the move, physically and technically, trying out new approaches and discovering new paths. I believe artists should continually challenge themselves and experiment in order to progress creatively and to keep ideas fresh and vital. My primary aim is to capture the essential quality of the experience before me at the very moment the shutter closes. I then allow the subject to dictate the precise levels of tone or colour required for the final image. These decisions are key to my creative process and something I find continually challenging and inspiring.
