About me...

My choice of photographic subjects reflects a lifelong interest in the natural world. I began taking pictures at an early age and have continued to develop my photography over the last 30+ years.

I studied Fine Art at the Wimbledon School of Art, London, completing a B.A. (Hons) in Painting 1987 and an M.A. in 1990. Following graduation, I've worked mainly in field of communications, most recently for the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) Unit, where I'm presently employed.

I'm not a professional photographer, but what started as a hobby now forms an increasingly important part of my professional life, finding a ready outlet through my work for the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Unit, the wider AONB Partnership and a number of conservation and business clients. In my pictures I seek to capture some of the most beautiful, but also fragile, places and animals to be found in eastern Britain. The low-lying coast of East Anglia with its network of estuaries and wetlands, the historic Sandlings Heaths and the Norfolk Broads all provide a wealth of opportunities for my landscape and wildlife photography.

It's an area I care passionately about and it's been a source of considerable satisfaction to be able to use my work to further, even if only in a very small way, the cause of conservation in this region. My images now appear regularly in books and magazines and, while many wildlife and landscape photographers travel widely in search of exotic subjects and wild, untamed landscapes, I continue to take most of my photographs close to my Suffolk home.
