My creative practice has moved around over the years but it's never drifted too far from the exploration of urban space and architecture.

​

The final destination for each photograph is a response to the individual nature of the subject I'm framing. I want to showcase the essence of a place, like a portrait, whether that be by highlighting fine detail or by centre staging an entire structure. The impact that framing can have on a subject, either with darkness and light or with negative space, can be fun to explore. 

​

I find myself drawn to the potential for whimsical, tranquil, romantic and cinematic moods which sometimes present themselves immediately, sometimes through time spent dwelling suspiciously at the physical scene, or even through the post processing stage of the journey.

​

I also have a soft spot for traditional cityscapes with long exposures that tranquilise the cluttered sprawl.

​

My toolkit consists of a digital SLR camera, neutral density filters, a tripod, and varying degrees of post processing.

I achieved a first class degree in photography and digital imaging at Leeds Met University. I've held two solo exhibitions, participated in group shows and been published in various photography related media. In 2021, I self published a photo book called "Fragile" - a portrait of New York City in lockdown.
