I am in advertising as an AE and Photography is my passion. I am very outgoing and love a challenge. My favourite photography is artistic expression and anything different or eye appealing. Portraiture & Weddings are my favourites. My intention is to capture the moment anf freeze that monent in time for the subject to record in their memories forever.
I live in Durban a surfing town in SA. I am very young at heart and love meeting new people from around the world and sharing my images with them.

Drakeography says:

"A man who knows how to take a great portrait and has the ability to create classic images, with his own style. Amazing work, enough said."

Segerius-Bruce Photography says:

"I have known Stuart for about 10 years now. Looking through your work I can see how far you have come. I really believe that the digital camera has enabled us to try and test so many new techniques. Well Done and keep it up!!"

Flawed Emmy says:

"Stuart brings innocence to a beautiful level. His portraits are such a wonder to see, he makes you feel, and deeply, with his images. He brings such heart to them that you can't help but see the love he has inside his soul.

Thank you for being you. Thank you for just being. Thank you for touching my life.

Emmy"

"d_rum2001 (Stuart) embodies what I love most about Flickr- great artistic expression and a wonderful spirit of community and sharing. He always brings a smile to my face whether it is when I come to his stream and see his beautiful portraits, crazy friends, and wonderful scenery, when he comes to my stream and leave comments, or even when I bump into him in other people's streams. He is a person that exudes a joy of life and I am happy to know him, even if it is only in cyberspace."

thirdgradevocabchamp says:

"Ask anyone who’s tried it, and they will tell you: portraiture is hard. Stuart, a.k.a. d_rum2001, has tackled this medium with an enthusiasm that has facilitated quick and impressive artistic development. Many of his portraits express an intimate understanding of a subject that the viewer could only have access to as a secondary source. In this way, Stuart opens small windows into his subjects that have prolific potential."
