English typographer, amateur photographer and world-class fashion icon trapped in the body of a bald, odd-humoured brummy who used to collect beer mats (I was told to leave all of my sad habits behind when I got married) and who may or may not have difficulty watching films without continually commenting on the plot...
Seriously though, my dad got me hooked on photography from a young age when he had me and my brother stomping through boggy forests carrying his equipment. Many hours were spent trying to adapt our vision to safe-light in his darkroom helping stir the chemicals. I guess it found its way into my blood and all through my time studying typography and graphic design I've always found solace in photography.
When I'm not out pointing my lens where it's not wanted I am a digital design specialist at one of the UK's most established agencies, Cogent Elliott.

karlequin says:
"It's been many years now since Karl arrived on this planet from an unknown origin. Since that time he has revolutionised our lives by inventing both photography and computing. We should all thank Karl for his work in popularising the technologies we love, and hope that he continues to supply civilisation with new and exciting things.
Oh, and he takes a mean photo too."7th August, 2006

myla kent says:
"One of the things I love most about Karl's photography is that he explores the boundaries of line and dimension, choosing angles and perspectives I wouldn't have thought of, producing what is turning into a fabulous body of work. He's definitely one to watch and I look forward to seeing his portfolio grow. The composition and tones throughout his black and whites series are an absolute visual treat."
