After my Honours degree in Photography at the University of Westminster I started doing commercial work for local food and drink producers where I began to really think about what was in front of my lens and why it was there. At that point I started my research into the symbolism in art and how I could introduce that into my photography.

A few years passed when I had to take a break owing to two rounds of surgery within a four month period, dealing with a couple of cancers. Not surprisingly this led to a reassessment of what I was doing which resulted in my walking away from my commercial work to concentrate on my fine art practice. From there I’ve gone on to exhibit in a number of galleries or at art fairs and have been honoured to have my work on walls around the world. For me, the fact that someone understands what I’m doing and wants to be so much a part of it that they buy a print (or more!) is truly remarkable. It is a confirmation of everything I am trying to achieve.

I am always interested in talking with galleries who know and understand photography and its place in the art world with a view to collaborating.
