I'm an English photojournalist and designer obsessed with the weird and wonderful. Originally a film programmer and projectionist at The Cube CInema in Bristol, since 2000 I've written magazine features and photographed cult movie directors, fan conventions, mexican wrestling events, haunted houses, freaks (physical and otherwise), tattooists and the tattooed, eating contests, burlesque legends and the occasional singing transexual. I'm a regular contributor to Bizarre and have also appeared in Rue Morgue, SFX, Maxim and The Independent.

Back in the mid-noughties, I edited and published Naked - Magazine of the Weird and Wonderful a mag-in-a-book format, full of popular and unpopular culture with a kink. Contents included cult movies, interviews, comics, burlesque, science fiction, mondo DVD reviews, strange music and just plain weird shit. After a long hiatus, and in a joint venture with Baby Tattoo Books in Los Angeles, Naked will be back in 2011.
