About

After working for 15 years in Local Government, latterly as the manager of Greenwich Film Unit, I made the decision to leave and follow my passion for photography. I have now completed a degree in Wildlife Photography at Blackpool and the Fylde College for which I received First Class with honours. Then in September 2009 I completed a Master of Arts in Wildlife Documentary Production. I have since gained a PTTL's teaching qualification. I have since developed quite a following and now offer tailor- made courses and one-to-one tutorials.

I have instinctively developed a feel for creative photography and the natural world, as well as a concern for the issues that face us today. As such, my work is multi-functional, as a celebration of animal life and the physical world around us, it also looks at various subjects often overlooked, misunderstood or simply begging to be questioned.

I hope you enjoy the site.
