On Photography

Meeting the truth of a person and being able to capture something of that truth in a portrait is exhilarating. Technical and creative skills are not enough.  To be aware of the person you are with and present to them is also a prerequisite for such images.  This demands a lot of the photographer and it is often hard to do when the natural light is changeable, children are non-compliant or someone is feeling self conscious or nervous about being photographed (to name but a few variables!).  My work has developed over the past fourteen years in such a way that I find that these three skills have come together more and more consistently.

Capturing the mystery and depth of a person or place is a passion but I also love to take more immediate images that focus on colour, pattern, repetition and humour.

I do hope that you will enjoy viewing the photographs I have taken.
