Welcome to my website 

I began by working at the Gloucestershire Echo, a daily newspaper based in Cheltenham. There, I covered a wide variety of press photography  ranging from news, features, concerts, royal visits and sport, to include  the Cheltenham Gold Cup, Gloucestershire Cricket Festival and  coverage of Cheltenham Town FC v Newcastle Utd in the FA Cup.

I have also worked at various local newspapers around country including the Sheffield Star, Derby Evening Telegraph, Exeter Express & Echo, Stoke Sentinel and Nottingham Evening Post

I have been a professional NCE qualified senior press photographer since 2004 and now work as a freelance photographer within the South East Essex. I am also a qualified tutor and have taught photojournalism and photography at both South East Essex College and Harlow College, Essex, since 2007.

I was appointed the position of Official Photographer for the Sutton with Shopland Festival, Rochford, Essex 2007. To see the pictures from this festival, click here.

Much of my work includes  press, bands, portraits, promotional shots, head shots, portfolios, social events and theatre production pictures.

My work has been published in local and national newspapers, magazines, advertisements, featured on websites, displayed in exhibitions and used for theatre productions.

This website showcases my work in areas including photojournalism, sport, bands, portraits, culture, weddings, theatre and landscapes. So if you are interested in seeing some examples of my work, click on galleries to view the images.
