Based in the City of Brighton and Hove, I am a photographer with an independent eye and vision that brings a slightly unconventional method and results to my picture making. With a passion for high calibre monochrome film, I rarely work with digital cameras, and still prefer the original methods for printing, using skilled professionals in the printing field to help me realise the visions I see when making an image. I am equally comfortable working with colour.

Growing up in west London during the early punk era, and with very strong connections to the area still, has instilled an urban grit to my work that I thoroughly enjoy, trying to connect with the people I am photographing, revealing something new, and I hope that my own humanity shines through too. As well as people, I enjoy the very natural elements in the amazing world around us, and have been somewhat blessed to live in this lovely old decaying City of Brighton, with the south downs on our doorstep. So capturing a heron fishing in Victorian gravel pits, for example, is equally as important as a grab shot of Mick Jones leaving Loftus Road, or Hanif Kureshi at a book reading.

I have been fortunate to work with John Peel, Norman Wisdom, Mark Thomas, Chris Eubank, Norman Cook, Buzzcocks, Michael Franti, Mark E Smith, Anita Roddick, Bruce Kent, Tony Benn and Jamie Oliver amongst many others.
