Having served in H.M. Royal Marines for 25 years, I gained an interest in photography through my travels.

After a very enjoyable and successful career, I reached retirement age of 40. Too young to call myself a pensioner I worked in various civilian roles for three years.

This period of my working life was an eye opener but the one constant was my photography.

I then embarked on a new career in the Police Service where I remained for 17 years until, once again, I reached the retirement age for that job.

Seeking fulfilment and still feeling I had something to offer, I changed direction completely and entered the world of social care working with people with both learning and physical disabilities. This work has been so very rewarding and I have surprised myself by having to use new and old skills to great effect.

Throughout all of these years, I have photographed so many weddings that I have lost count. I have carried out some commercial work and also tutored people how to understand their cameras.

My favourite genre though is portraiture and fashion taking in street photography too.
