About Me
I took a keen interest in photography during my time at Dartington College of Arts, where I began capturing backstage photographs during theatre performances and music gigs. It wasn’t until after graduation in 2012 that I decided to make a career out of it. Through my tiny business I have met some fabulous and talented individuals along the way and have managed to build a close team over the years and have never looked back.
I usually work all over the place from studios to quirky houses, to desolate or elegant locations. I'm incredibly lucky to have a brilliant, mad and super talented team supporting me, so between us we can handle the tricky things; from location scouting through to design, styling, makeup & editing. Feel free to drop me an email if you have a project you'd like to discuss.
