My Passion

For me, photography is very much a passion and something that is a central part of my life. My greatest passion, however, is my little Patterdale terrier, Tess, who goes almost everywhere with me. She has quite a following too. So much so that she even has her own website page. TESS’S PAGE Check it out and see what she gets up to.
 My other love is nature and the countryside, and given where I live, it is not hard to see why, and you can bet that if I’m not on a photo shoot for a client, I will be out and about on the hills with Tess and my camera waiting for that special moment when the light captures a perfect landscape. Or down on the beach, or some rocky cove waiting for a golden sunrise.

What I do!

Rather than a specialist photographer my genre tends to be more general. Indeed I get asked to do a variety of different photography and videography. It can be anything from photographing Spring lambing to photographing a pheasant shoot on a cold January day. Or an annual village show with all it’s fun and laughter as part of my event photography, to getting down in the sand as I capture that cheetah like run as Banjo bounds in to the surf. One of my favourite types of photo shoots has to be photographing the antics of dogs playing on the many outdoor dog photography sessions I get asked to do.
And if I’m not doing that then I’ll be up in the hills photographing a golden sunset to be used in a magazine or newspaper or even sold as a framed print to hang on someone’s wall. One thing is for certain life is never dull.
