So much more than just photography!

Photography is important to the image we all project. Perhaps given the opportunity I could make a difference to you or your project.

I believe that a good image is as much the result of good team work as it is about technical ability behind the lens. For me it is important that photoshoots are fun. But this does not detract from the hard work and attention to detail that is used to achieve the final image.

I’ve been a freelance photographer for many years. Originally published in outdoor interest titles I now work almost exclusively as a documentary photographer for TV and film production companies. The images I shoot often form part of PR campaigns published by major media outlets with photographs being recognised as standalone content. I was delighted to be part of the award winning team at Northern Town TV for Sky Arts for the 2022 entry “Statues Redressed”. This included a major outdoor exhibition of images that I co-curated with Liverpool City Council. Northern Town’s BBC4 documentary “Dance Passion Liverpool - Find The Feeling” closely followed on, it explored different dance genres across a diverse range of dancers performing in Liverpool. As an opener for Eurovision 2023 I was fortunate enough to work as the stills photographer for Jeanefer Jean-Charles and (again) Northern Town TV on “The People’s Flag” a Eurovision commission celebrating the Ukrainian connection.

I’ve also shot at music festivals providing images to one of the largest agencies in London. My commercial work also includes portrait and portfolio work for models, actors and dancers.

I’m really comfortable working to a brief or just getting on with it if given my editorial head. In addition to using modern digital medium format equipment to capture the highest level of detail I still use film for the authenticity and “different” look that film can achieve.

Although I’ve worked on both national and international commissions I’m really keen to promote local communities through my photography. As a result I undertake Third Sector work supporting the RNLI volunteer crews of the West Kirby lifeboat station through my photography whilst accepting commissions from the organisation’s national creative team.

The bottom line is I really love working with people and hearing their stories!
