About Me

Well, I'm no full time professional photographer, but its something I've loved doing since I got my first SLR aged 16. One of my previous jobs was running a photography laboratory as well as selling cameras, during the time of the digital revolution.
More than anything my passion lies with travel and landscape photography, with people and portrait shots every now and then as you will hopefully see browsing through my albums.
To date I have close to 10,000 in digital library images and that's not including my years shooting 35mm Film and Slide!

I've loved to travel since I turned 16, and have been lucky enough to have undertaken several incredible trips and expeditions over the past years, always accompanied with a camera!
Among my favourite subjects at school / college was Art and Graphic Design. I qualified with an AVCE in Art and Design and spent many hours making pin-hole cameras from beer cans and developing my own black and white prints.

My career passion then went another way and rather than the traditional university route I undertook my Commercial Pilot Training in Jerez, Spain (as you can see from the album.)
I now fly as a First Officer for a European airline, originally from a place in-between Bristol and Bath, and now living in Dublin, Ireland.
