I don’t think you’d disagree when I say that athletes have a huge influence on the world. They have the power to bring tears of joy or sorrow to a nation. Athletes can unite thousands, their stories and records have a rightful place in history.
In my career in photography, I’ve had the joy of working with some incredible athletes. The stories of these individuals are inspiring; their hard work and ambition is contagious and it is them that have shaped my work over the years and driven me to achieve my career goals.
I like to tell real stories, that are honest and raw, documenting people doing the things they love. I choose to work within sport, as I believe active lifestyles inspire positive change, through physical achievement, mental health or simply the joy of cheering around a telly with friends and family.
As for myself, you’ll most likely find me replacing divots on a golf course, featuring as a once-yearly cameo for my local Rugby club, or ideally, behind a camera.
My approach to photography is unique, deep and dramatic, and I’ve worked with teams and brands all over the world. You can read more about my approach to photography, and see my portfolio, on my website.
If you’re looking for a professional photographer and director to work with on your creative projects, I’d love to hear from you! Drop me an email, or give me a call.
All the best,
