I am a freelance photographer and AV technician currently living in the UK.  I was born in Stafford and went to school at Walton High.  My further education was at Stafford College and after completing a foundation course in Art & Design I moved to Bristol where I gained a BA Hon’s in Fine Art (specialising in documentary photography & filmmaking).  On completion I started making promotional & documentary films, eventually progressing into teaching film studies (with practical workshops) along side.  I had always produced photographic work when filmmaking and after securing a few photography commissions I shifted focus and took on more photograpic work.  I produced both commissioned and personal photography and my work featured in magazines, newspapers, brochures, music album covers, and also solo exhibitions.  I moved to manchester in 2005 and completed a Masters in photography at the University Of Bolton. No sooner had I finished my Masters I/my partner packed our bags and headed of on a long travel expedition with the intention of finishing it in New Zealand. Whilst living in NZ I worked for 2 years as a Photography and Moving Image technician at Auckland University and had the opportunity to teach a number of creative students. I have now returned to the UK and am continuing my role as freelance photographer

Any other interests?  Other than photography I am usually skateboarding, at the cinema, listening to music, travelling, or enjoying time with my family.

I am always interested in taking on commissioned work so please contact me if you have any proposals or questions.
