Biography – I’ve enjoyed playing with photography ever since I was a child, shooting a wide variety of subjects and techniques, from tiny closeups to broad vistas. For me there’s just something magical about being alone with your camera and tripod on a dark night, capturing the world as it moves around you. I’m based in central England and love just wandering off with my camera gear or setting up a studio subject to play with, and I hope you like the results.
