I first got interested in Photography whilst I was at school. I am always looking to be more streamlined and efficient. Painting was my first love but when i found out that photography could do that in 1/1000th of a second I was instantly hooked My photography has taken me through everything, especially things I have been interested in. Fashion,nature and in particular sport. My background as a swimmer has given me the ability to understand how swimming is photographed. Knowing when the swimmers breathe, how they dive and get ready on the blocks is all second nature to me. My hobby in nature turned into a profession when I was asked to have some of my prints put on to canvas for a friend of mine and since then that part of my career has grown ever since. My interest in fashion came from a friend of mine, who I went to school with. It turns out he has a large clothing line that headlined at London fashion week and invited me to take the photos there.
