“The camera is an

instrument that teaches

people how to see

without a camera.”

Dorothea Lange

In my photography I like to combine the artistic and technical aspects of the domain and enjoy applying creativity across a broad spectrum of styles rather than a single specialisation. My work ranges from travel and documentary to conservation & wildlife, cityscape, landscape, aerial, and astro photography, as well as time-lapse films, always looking to capture compositions not yet seen before.

Conservation

During my latest trip to Kenya I had the pleasure to work with the International Fund for Animal Welfare to document their work in Amboseli National Park, and particularly their ranger teams, including the all-female Team Lioness.

Signed Prints

The feeling of seeing your work on paper and taking the time to handcraft the final result has always been very enjoyable for me, so almost all of my work is available as custom signed prints, some of it in limited editions. You can find a selection of them here, but contact me for a custom quote on any of my images.
