“my”
I call my series of photo books “my.” The short burst of time when my eye looks through the camera and my finger hits the shutter, the thing that I see, for a second or two, becomes mine – this remarkable place, or structure, or person has caught my eye and the resulting image is my claim to that special moment with them.

About me
My interest in photography began in my teens as I browsed through magazines. I’d stare at the images of far-off lands and cultures, and daydream of the time when I’d be able to see and photograph them myself.
I love travel and photography. Through my photographs I share my passion for realism, showing photos of people and places as my eyes see them.
My images are ‘quiet’ – through this stillness I hope they invite the viewer to get involved, to solve the mystery of what the story is for themselves.
