About me

I'm a portrait photographer with decades of snapping the great, the notorious and the talented in entertainment, corporate and advertising.

I've worked with some of the most important and influential individuals you could ever meet. From Tony Blair and Al Gore to Benedict Cumberbatch and Pavarotti- no two days are ever the same.

I can sometimes be found shooting in corners of hotel rooms, ceilings of studios or attached to the side of an aeroplane. Oh, and I was there to photograph (the now former) Prince Andrew for the infamous Newsnight/BBC interview in Buckingham Palace..

My clients have ranged from Avalon to CSC and Burberry, Wondery and the BBC as well as Spotify. Several of my images have been acquired by the National Portrait Gallery in London.

I've photographed people for editorial, TV shows, advertising and corporate annual reports. I have been shouted at, had people laugh (and cry) and occasionally squeeze me (if the screen is on the right frame), and recently I've been photographing in a maximum security prison.
