About
Since being given my first Kodak Brownie camera I have had a fascination with photography. After graduating from Hull University with a BA hons in Economics, Politics and Sociology, I moved to London to work in social housing in the inner city. Wishing to widen my horizons, I took a postgraduate diploma in Photojournalism at the London College of Printing, leaving behind Peckham for my first overseas assignment in Phnom Penh.
I have since worked as a photographer, filmmaker and writer in over 50 countries for N.G.Os, publishers, magazines and corporate clients. From 2013 to 2016 I worked as a multimedia producer for SciDev.Net – the leading online source of news and analysis on science and development. Contributing over 30 films, photo slide shows, written articles and audio features for the site.
I am renowned for my ability to cover the most sensitive of issues in an unobtrusive, empathetic manner. Particularly adept at working on projects from pre to post production, I deliver for clients a collaborative, practical and innovative approach to their requirements.
I live in South East London with my wife and have two daughters, who keep my feet firmly on the ground.
