My Nan & Grandad taking pictures in Norwich
Hi, I think taking pictures is in my genes. I have grown up around photography with my Dad and Grandad taking great pictures. My Grandad exhibited at the Norwich Photographic Sociey and my Dad's house is full of familiy portraits.
I got my first camera aged 11 and won my school photographic competition and I have been hooked ever since.
Me & Dad
In December 2006 I moved over from my Nikon F301 35mm, and my Nikon Coolpix 885 digital compact to my Nikon D200 SLR and I have upgraded to a D300 in Jan 2008, which is an absolutely fantastic piece of kit.
I am passionate about photography and love to take my camera out whenever I can. One of my favourite places is the North Norfolk Coast, it is absolutely beautiful so if the sun is out then I am likely to be out there with family, a picnic and my camera.
My photographs have a copyright ©. so they may not be reproduced or used publicly in any way without my express permission. If you would like to use or purchase any of my pictures then please contact me.
Caught in the act by my wife! Sunset chasing at Chapel Lane Wymondham, Norfolk, UK.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my pictures, I hope they give you as much pleasure as they do me.
Me and my able assistants, Sophie and James
Life begins at forty they say and to celebrate.....

Renée Ann Wirick (on a Flickr break) says:
"Robert is a wonderful contact who always has time to come by and appreciate the work of his friends, and who is a master of photography himself! The love of his family and the pride and enjoyment of "his" Norfolk, especially Wymondham, is evident in every shot, each one of which is special. I take comfort in that when when it is time for me to go back to America I will still have a friend in Norfolk!"
