ABOUT ME
I am photographer based in London, specialising in images of classical musicians. I capture portraits, and promotional images, as well as documenting leading classical music festivals.
In addition to this specialism, my portrait work has included photographing creatives, models and on the street.
Outside of portraiture, I’ve worked with brands and design studios, to capture promotional and product-based photographs for web and other digital channels; including The Arena, Daniel Kevin Lloyd, and Antique Ring Boutique.
My more personal work includes landscapes, street photography, and images taken spontaneously on my day to day travels. These images are mainly produced as prints, and some featured in online collections.
I self-published my first book, ‘Cyclists of London’, as a photographic journal, documenting some of the city’s many cyclists during the post-lockdown period of summer 2020.
In the role of photography assistant, I’ve worked on shoots with actors such as Olivia Colman, Gary Oldman and Ferdinand Kingsley, as well as the Oxbridge choirs.
