About Me

Hello and Thank you for visiting my website.

I am a photographer based in a little village called Melbourne, Derbyshire where i have lived all my life i have been using a camera from an early age starting in film and then onto the more modern digital photography. This enabled me to gain over 20 years of knowledge and experience of working behind the camera.

I have what i call an old-school approach to photography and by this i mean i still remember the days of taking a photo and waiting to see what it came out like this meant that you had to get it right otherwise you was very disappointed when it came to processing.

I didnt have the ability to delete the shots of the floor, out of focus or bad light photos i just ended up with a bad photo and was one less photo i could take on my 24 or 36 exposure film.

So applying this technique to digital means if it doesnt require editing i simply dont.

I very rarely do what i call major editing infact the majority of the photos are only cropped and resized for the specific purposes and just like marmite "you either love it or hate it" and i love it as its what makes my work diffrent.

So when you look at the majority of photos on this site remember they dont differ if anything from the photo that came directly from the memory card,

I also have been very privileged to become a accredited press photographer which has lead me to working at many special events and concerts thus leading to my work being published in well branded publications such as Nuts, Maxim, Zoo, Max Power & Lotus Magazine to name a few.

I have also made guest appearances on Kerrang Radio & BBC Radio.

I work on a private and public basis and have worked alongside other photographers, directors & producers this has allowed me to meet some well known people and some great models some of which have become good friends.

Thank you for stopping by please feel free to follow me on Facebook or Twitter.
