About me
As a young creative in the South West, I have built up a portfolio that includes work for local and national campaigns. For me this journey began as an exchange student in the Australian city of Adelaide. Having never really taken my interest in photography seriously, I bought a second hand dSLR and, inspired by the scenery our spontaneous road trips brought us to, began capturing these as best I could. Turns out I was rather good at it. Forward a year and, back at Exeter University where I was studying a BA in Geography, I spent more time capturing student events than going to them. It was clear to me that I needed to pursue this passion full time when I graduated. I've been shooting events, music videos and advertising material ever since.

  • Hijacked Festival 2017
    Hijacked Festival 2017I was part of the visuals team that delivered photographic coverage of Hijacked Festival 2017. This was used both to both promote social media engagement in the immediate aftermath of the event amongst the primerily student market but also to form the visual base for the advertising campaign for the 2018 festival.
