Hello and thank you for visiting my website. This site displays only a small selection of my Landscape, Nature & Wildlife photographs.
I first became interested in photography in 1999 whilst studying the subject at college and continued my interest further by assisting one of Manchester's leading Wedding photographers. Over the next few years I continued my interest in the subject and quickly developed my own unique style and approach to photography. I originally began by using a Canon T70 camera to shoot B&W film and developing & printing my results in a makeshift darkroom at home. I had brief spells shooting Provia & Velvia slide film before moving to Digital in 2003. In 2007
after building up a large client list I decided to take the plunge and
become a full time professional photographer. As a full time professional
photographer I have undertaken a range of photography commissions for
small local business to large world-wide businesses. I regularly have work
published in local and national magazines, I am a regular contributor of
images and articles to a number of the UK's leading photography magazines
and I am quickly gaining a reputation as one of Norfolk's most promising
young photographers specialising in landscape photography. The thing I
love most about professional photography is you are always being
challenged as every commission is
completely different. With my own photography I work hard on trying to get the best possible image in camera and keeping the photoshop side of things quick and simple. I use Lee ND Grad filters to control exposure differences in camera, whilst I am not against photographers using modern image blending techniques such as HDR I prefer to spend my time out in the field chasing the light rather than being stuck in the office merging differently exposed images for hours. For me it is light that makes a really strong image and I can often be found waiting hours upon hours in the field waiting for the light to break. If the light is poor I will either wait or return to the location at a further date. If I am not shooting a silhouette image of a great sky at sunrise or sunset then it's very rare for me to take a landscape image without natural good quality light illuminating the scene. By making the natural light such a priority I feel this ensures my images are bright and vibrant and helps separate my images from a lot of other photographers. Whether you're viewing for pleasure, to purchase prints or for commercial
reasons, I hope you enjoy my work, please revisit my site as it will constantly
be updated and new images will be added each month.
