I’m a photographer, originally from London, with a history of working across multiple genres - including, but not limited to, fashion, commercial, events. Now living in Manchester, I still work regularly in London as well as Manchester and also cater to other cities and towns across the UK. I'm also available for hire globally. My list of past clients is extensive, but some of the more notable include VOXI by Vodafone, Reebok, Panasonic, Made.com, Hooch, Creative Debuts, JUST UK, Franklin & Sons, Flowdan and I AM NEXT. With an educational background in graphic design, my passion for visual arts and visual communication is a big aspect of what I do, often combining my graphic design skills with my photography skills for various projects, personal and client orientated.
