Why I Rebuilt My Website

My Previous Website Complete with Favourite Black & White Image

My old website had been stuck for quite a while — untouched, unloved, and increasingly out of date. I’d stopped updating it because, deep down, I knew it needed more than a quick tidy-up. It needed a complete rebuild.

Squarespace had moved on, upgrading their tools and templates, and my old site had been left behind. It no longer worked properly, and trying to patch it up felt like wasting energy that would be better spent creating new work.

So I took the plunge and started again from scratch. I wanted a site that felt fresh and flexible — a place that reflects where my street photography is now, not where it was a few years ago.

Looking ahead, I’d like this new site to grow into more than just a gallery. Eventually, I hope it can become a place to share and sell prints, run small workshops, and maybe even host a regular newsletter — something more personal and engaging than the quick-scroll world of social media.

Those things are still to come, but having the space ready feels like an important first step. I’d love it to become a quieter corner of the internet, where people who enjoy my photography can connect, respond, and maybe even join me on the journey.

It’s good to be back — and I’m looking forward to seeing where this new version of the site takes me.

I’d love to know what you think.

Have you got any suggestions for how I can improve it?

Til next time,
