As a relative latecomer to the world of photography, my eyes were initially opened to the captivating world of photography whilst honeymooning in Japan, before later stumbling into landscape photography in 2012 – a genre I instantly fell in love with appreciating not only its beauty, drama, and variety but the many challenges it presents. My initial passion for capturing wild and rugged seascapes was driven from a lifetime living just a stone’s throw from Dorset’s stunning Jurassic coastline but over recent years, this yearning for raging storm seas has been contrasted and balanced by the quiet calling of Dorset’s hidden woodlands. Wild mornings dodging raging seas now compete with the lure of leisurely ambles through mist shrouded woods, dodging nothing but brambles and the occasional startled deer.
I specialise in atmospheric images of the South West’s ever-changing coastline and intimate treescape scenes of mother nature at her finest, combining floral displays, spectacular conditions and grand woodlands, My unique imagery was recognised in 2020, winning the UK Landscape Photographer of the Year award and placing runner-up in the Wildflowers category of the International Garden Photographer of the Year.
Having arrived too late for the film era, I have always shot digitally and appreciate the flexibility and opportunities it presents. With the trusty Nikon in hand, there is equal enjoyment gained from, and importance placed on all stages of the photography journey from scouting, visualization, and image capture through to post-processing, an element I believe is often key in realising my vision.
