About Me
British-born but worked my way up the North-East United States (with a couple adventures along the way) and eventually made Boston my home which it has been now for over two decades. I am a full-time marketing compliance professional but I love photography. Learning it has been a great way to push myself creatively as it challenges me to capture a moment or tell a story in a single image. While I also do some videography, web design (built this page myself), and other related activities, photography is my passion and focus.

My Style
This adventure began during the Pandemic when I decided it was a good time to get serious about photography. I started with landscape and cityscape shots while we could walk around but had to socially distance and particularly loved learning to do long exposure shots. I have since added portraits, band photography, wildlife, macro, and street photography styles to the mix. Learning each one has taught me new techniques and approaches to capturing the best images possible and I am always on the lookout for new creative opportunities.
Portfolio
Photography can involve so many different adventures; whether it is sitting on Longfellow Bridge praying for a good sunset, meticulously setting up the lighting for a portrait shoot with a model, scoring photo creds to shoot a great band from the pit, walking around the city to find something new and exciting to capture, or in the wild just patiently waiting for some exotic wildlife to make an appearance. I love going through my portfolio and letting the images I captured remind me about all of these great times.
Music and other forms of art have always been a favorite subject of mine when it comes to photography. Along with being a fan myself, I like to help other artists get their work seen in hopes it helps them to achieve their goals as well. There are so many amazing local and rising star artists out there that aren't selling out arenas or famous galleries but are still so amazing to see. Be sure to keep an eye on my Instagram page as I routinely feature artists when I have seen a show or work of theirs that impressed me.

Connect
Social media is the best way to keep up with my latest news and projects. I love sharing BTS for things that I am working on and often share some one-offs that aren't full projects but too much fun not to share (I may also post personal and random musings from time to time so be warned lol). For business inquiries, such as booking a photo shoot or buying a print, please contact me by email or by the messenger tool on Instagram and I will respond as soon as possible.
This is a side hustle that I do for passion not profit and never want to provide a poor client experience so I tend to be selective about taking jobs (besides my own). There is nothing wrong with reaching out and telling me what you are looking for though; if it sounds fun, is worth me booking it, and our schedules permit, perhaps we can make it happen (or I might have a good referral to provide to you).
