I started enjoying taking and making photographs during my A-Levels, I became obsessed with making prints in the black and white darkroom, I enjoyed the whole process but it was something about seeing the image come through in the developer that excited me. I went on to study Photography at The University College for Creative Arts, here I got further knowledge of the history of art and photography, it was here I began to understand what a photograph could be, what it could mean and represent as well as what it could never be. During my time at university I also began to look further afield from just artists to philosophers which inspired a lot of my written and practical work. It was this exploration that inspired me to experiment with photography a lot more, to try things out and to push an idea as far as possible.
As of Summer 2010, I'm a full-time photographer at Hungry Tiger studios (now Seventy7 Group) in Fulham, London. Here I've had the opportunity to work with some big fashion brands and really refine the technical side of my photography. I still test and produce my own work and having the use of the studio outside hours is really what makes that possible.
