I am a British photographer who has lived, worked and photographed in and around Venice for over 15 years. 

 

Interests cover street photography, abstraction, portraiture, close-up and long exposure work and examples of projects have also been published in print magazines including Amateur Photographer magazine (January/September 2024), Black & White Photography Magazine and Digital Photographer magazine (December 2024) where I was featured under their Photo CV section.  I was also shortlisted for the Black & White Magazine Photographer of the Year in 2018 and for the British Photography Awards in 2020.   My shot, ​​​​​​'Reflected Bell Tower' was also published in 'Dream of Venice in Black and White' by Bella Figure Publications  in September 2018.   In  2024, I  was also selected as one of 10 shortlisted photographers for Milan-based 'The Street Soup' Monochrome exhibition and included in the accompanying book.

​

Solo exhibitions in Venice include:  Caigo (Venetian Fog) in 2024,  Venice Street Geometry in February 2025 and Biennale People in October/November 2025. All were held at Kunst Depot Venezia (www.veneziakunstdepot.com), proved highly successful and have led to further exposure and future collaborations. 

​

Commercial work includes photo shoots for marketing and media content, as well as covering events, performances and shows.  I have also shot editorial and commercial stock images for Getty Images and Shutterstock, with material published globally through various media outlets including the BBC, The Guardian and the Financial Times.  Commercial work is shot using Fujifilm XT5 and the superb Fujifilm XF 16-55mm f2.8 lens.

​​​​​​

My essential 'everyday' kit is designed for portability and ease of handling without compromising image quality.  In any working day, I carry a Fujifilm X-E3 and a small prime lens depending on what I am seeking.  However, I often use the vintage manual prime lenses (typically Pentax or Nikon) from the 1970s and 80s mounted on a Fujifilm body which provides a nice blend of analogue/digital media to slow things down, isolate elements with manual focus and develop levels of creativity.   I also shoot with film, using an Pentax ME SLR and Olympus mju II f2.8 compact and, as I always carry it with me I also shoot using the iPhone 15 which has proven to be highly versatile with exceptional image quality.
