Whether I’m ambling around city streets and the great outdoors or spending hours focusing on a single shot, I find the process of making photographs extremely satisfying. Capturing something unique is a challenge: seeking a new viewpoint and moment in time or shedding new light (sometimes literally) on a familiar subject. Its a challenge that makes my camera an almost constant companion.

I have been a keen landscape and outdoor photographer for the last 15 years or so. My interest stemmed from my complete inability to capture through a viewfinder the sense of awe I felt when out walking in the British hills. It was then that I was determined to do something about this inability and set about teaching myself how to capture landscapes that meant something to me when I got home. After putting a portfolio together of my best British landscape images I achieved my Associateship of the Royal Photographic Society followed by Associateship of the Welsh Photographic Federation.

I am a hobbyist photographer and keen club member; competitive and sometimes creative, but always hungry to learn or to help others.

I’ve been interested in photography for too long to say...I don’t really have the patience for landscape (doesn’t stop me trying though) but love urban photos, architecture, plants, beasts and bugs, trees, infrared, night, creative, manipulated images - basically anything.

I guess my favourite photographic style to work with is conceptual. It gives me as an artist the freedom to allow my mind to wonder, limitless without the confinement of everyday life or even reality. In short, If I can dream it, I can create it. The approach and execution are my only consideration, which in itself can become a journey of wonders and discoveries.
