I am driven by a desire to create images that document the world around us in new and interesting ways. Photography is my way of connecting and sharing what I see.
I care about the future, about people, business and the environment. I know that this is a time where there is often some uncertainty and anxiety. I am keen to respond to this by showing people who are doing positive things to make a difference.
I also love just spending time out and about. Much of my work is based around journeys and on a personal level I love the meditative nature of the act of walking. Passing slowly through a landscape allows us time to observe and reflect.
I am inspired by people who do things differently, and see the world in their own way. Particular influences include the photographers Keith Carter and Susan Burnstine, sculptor Antony Gormley, and filmmaker Deeyah Khan.
