Who are you?
I grew up in Newcastle where I spent 5 years studying photography. I’ve lived and worked as a photographer in London for over 20 years. I like to get the shot the client wants with as little re-touching as possible, this is possible by understanding how to light the shot.
What are you inspired by?
The person that has inspired me most came to my attention in my college days. It is André Kertész, who created images that were not the norm at the time by using different compositions to tell his story.
What was the last movie you watched?
'The Big Short'. Very well shot and acted. I was surprised that I was rooting for the people who were about to bring down the world’s economy.
What was the last book you read?
'A Brief History of Seven Killings' by Marlon James. I still haven’t finished this, finding it hard going.
What is your next creative project?
I am going to create a series of macro images of cocktails.
What do you like about Portfoliobox?
The ease with which you can create a very professional looking, easy to use website yourself. I particularly like the control you have in being able to update and change the images on your site so quickly.
