Music and motorsport photojournalist, actor, human.
I didnt really have a great education.
I sold my first set of pictures at 14 though and I was good at art and I loved story writing.
Leaving school with 7 B-C grade GCSE's I tried living a regular 9-5, driving trucks, collecting garbage, laying bricks, working in offices, telesales, factories, window cleaning on skyscrapers, making maps and plans in drawing offices. It was certainly 'interesting' but it definately wasnt me.
I never stopped taking pictures and writing stories though and that was the only thing I was really good at so I went pro and set up on my own. Almost 20yrs later and Im still being paid to shoot although now I get paid to write stories, think up TV shows, promote bands and go to races.
On my days off I work in movies, TV and Music videos. I even do my own stunts too but usually someone elses. They get the awards, I get the bruises.
Ive also home educated my eldest son since 2008 and I coach him for Team GB 10m pistol. Hes also an actor and photographer and now an A* student.
Ive not always had an easy life but Ive certainly lived a life less ordinary.
I think Im doing Ok for an oldboy with no real education though.
Im a people person, talk to me I wont bite. most of 'Me' is on my Wordpress site, its due an update but its all true.
