Photographs give me hope; visual diaries making the ordinary extraordinary, helping me tell you other people stories. I show you what I see, my own view of the world, and invite you to subscribe or question. Photography makes sense of what I see, and how I want you to see it. I cannot tell you, but I can show you.

I have just completed my Photography Foundation Degree at Newcastle College gaining a First-Class Distinction. I was presented with an Award for Excellence and Acheivement on my course. I have most recently been employed on the Electronic Picture Desk at Newcastle Evening Chronicle (NCJ Media Ltd.)as well as working on commercial commissions and supplying images to www.objectart.co.uk.

I am recipient of the Michael Ormerod Travel Award 2007 and will exhibit my travel project 'Blackpool' in Newcastle in November 2007. In June 2007 I was also one of 30 entrants chosen from 7,000 to exhibit at Arles 2007 as part of the HP/Magnum; Hype Gallery Street Photography Competition.

In July 2007 I moved to London to pursue my Photographic Career and I can often be seen walking around my house in my underwear! :-D
