Fac-Man's photostream  

For the last 24 Years I have been a Facade Engineer specialising in the design and engineering of Structural Glass, Unitised Facades, Curtain Walling and Windows for small to large commercial projects including schools, offices and skyscrapers. I would certainly love to be a Professional Photographer but it doesn't pay as well and then it would be a job!

Photography is my main passion but second behind my other passion; my wife Joanne and my 2 beautiful children, Thomas and Lauren.

Recently I have started shooting Semi-Professionally (happy with that) for a Sports Photography Agency and am currently licensed to shoot in the:

English Premier League
Championship
League 1
League 2
Blue Sq Premier
Blue Sq North and South

I am also Official Club Photographer for the Blue Sq Bet North side - Worcester City FC.

I also suffer from Crohn's disease, which nearly killed me in early 2007. I survived 9-months in hospital over a 2-year period and lost 2-years of my life with very little recollection. Balancing Crohn's with my job and family can sometimes be challenging but life's too short and after surviving Crohn's, I am taking all opportunities life has to offer. Working from home as a Facade Consultant gives me freedom that money cannot buy. I consider mysefl very lucky.
