About

I picked up a camera with a vengeance some years ago and have been taking pictures ever since. Now it is what I do to be me. Obsessively. Obsession is the best route to knowing.

Like the most memorable journeys, it has been littered with smashes, crashes and incredible views. Full of things that seemed good at the time. And this is how I learned. It's that old punk ethos - just have a go.

That journey keeps rolling and I keep growing.

Gradually a voice develops. Something distinctive, hopefully. For me, street photography is where I find my voice. My creative buzz. Anticipating a moment, a glance, an action, an expression - snap. Move on.

A camera is never far from reach - photography is the passion. Not the day job. But working with people helps me tune in, to empathise and, most importantly, to anticipate... That really helps with street photography.
