Former Official Photographer to the UK Prime Minister I now specialise in Portraiture, Beauty & Boudoir and Photojournalism.
My passion stems from an early age surrounded by the picturesque Pennines and my fathers own photography. Throughout my teens I studied Art and Graphic Design before working for a mail order company photographing products for their website. In 2002 I opted for a career change serving my country as a Soldier in the British Army.
Over a decade later and I have been surrounded by environments only a soldier could experience, continually sparking my passion to get behind the lens. I am now currently one of only 37 professional British Army photographers covering everything from conflict, ceremonial parades to humanitarian aid.
I have been at the forefront of international journalistic photography as part of a Combat Camera Team in Afghanistan, a country of generous and honourable people torn apart by conflict. I have acted as the UK Government’s Official Photographer for the D-Day 70th Anniversary in France and the NATO Summit Wales 2014 and have more recently covered the Ebola response in Sierra Leone.
Building on my previous photographic knowledge I studied at the UK's Defence School of Photography which is considered as being one of the top photography schools in the country and have since gone on to qualify as an Associate of the British Institute of Professional Photography.
A keen blogger I like to write about my imagery and share my knowledge regularly and when I’m not blogging or taking photos you will most likely find me relaxing around my home on the border of the Brecon Beacon National park or in Tenby where I met my beautiful fiancée.
