I love photography

it is my way of telling the stories I see, my own and yours

My passion for photography began when I recieved my first set of black and white prints from a roll I'd shot during a family holiday in the summer of "89. It felt magical to have these images that were such a special reminder of our time together. Photographs have the power to do that, take you back to a time and place.

Growing up I loved watching the old black and white movies with my father. He was an actor and together we would analyse how they were shot, the lighting, the angles, all the geeky stuff really. This inspired me to study photography at college and media production at university. Although I still have an affection for the moving image, it was the still image that captured my heart.

At first I worked with other photographers photographing weddings for over 15 years. In 2012 I started my own business, working with families and personal branding clients as well as weddings, I love being able to offer a very personal service in the exact way I want. I also discovered a love for using old fashioned analogue cameras, I was lured by the special depth, colour, honesty, imperfections and beauty that is film. For me it goes beyond being work and is more a part of my life, as you will see from my regular blog and Instagram posts. 

I want your time with me to be personal; it will be me who meets with you, takes your photographs and designs your album. It will be me at the end of the phone to answer your questions and give any advice I can.

Thank you for taking the time to read, I'd love to talk with you soon and hear your story.

The Zutons were so great! Still remember the joy at getting their first album 20 years ago when Ava was a baby, we’d dance to them in the morning before heading out for the day, me full of extra strong espresso, rock and roll 😆 First time at t

He even combed his hair before going to the loo in the middle of the night! Doreen a total opposite, far more on the wild side, ready for any daring and mucky adventure. Always a comb in Bills pocket, he would on occasion, without looking at her just pull the comb from his pocket and hand it to her #notsosubtlehint #oppositesattract
Always feels such a dramatic change traveling from the south east coast to the northern borders. The temperature drops as we climb. Last pic taken in the car an hour from home.
