Practicing Artist based in the West Midlands. I also work with Andy Hamilton to run the Jazz Club at Bearwood Corks Club in Smethwick. My video and photography is mostly music oriented.

The earlier work on my Flickr site was taken with a Fuji F11 compact camera, designed with the emphasis on light handling. I've now got a Lumix LX3 cos it's great - cracking lens and great light handling. Also the lack of a big zoom has got me thinking about the bigger picture again.

Andy Hamilton and Friends
When photographing musicians in action I like working on continuous shooting partly because I'm more likely to get a shot where I'm holding the camera nice and still, and partly because it takes the timing of the shot out of my control. This means I'm more likely to catch something of subject rather than my personal view of the subject - I hope you know what I mean.

Edgbaston Reservoir at night
Recently I've taken a bit of an interest in photographing the Edgbaston Reservoir. It's a little bit of country in the heart of the city. It was built by Telford to supply the canal system in a city which proudly boasts more canals than Venice. It's a micro-environment in which the weather and the effects of it's surroundings make for some amazing photography.

You'll find more photography on my site and some video as well as video on my Vimeo and Youtube sites.
