About

I am a photographer, creator, artist, and documenter, with an emphasis on the original and unfiltered. Having graduated with a First Class MA from the Granada Centre for Visual Anthropology, my work explores and reflects the everyday through lens of conscious understanding and an appreciation for the beauty found in urban environments, unique creativity, originality, and contrast. My portfolio shows a range of my work, as I am a multi-disciplinary creative, having completed films, photoshoots, and magazines, with experience in design and marketing. If you require a creative who will understand, explore, and collaborate with you in fresh, new, and unexpected ways on your creative projects, feel free to contact me for a consultation, and explore the rest of my work via the links below.

PHOTOGRAPHY

Seeing Differently

Studio Photography

I am well versed and experienced with studio photography. Mostly working on headshots for actors (stage and screen), musicians, and model polaroids for agencies. I have been creating in studio environments for two years now, working with a diverse range of people, executing different creative visions, and ensuring client satisfaction and comfort.

Selected Works- Included are headshots for actors, and polaroids for models

Event and Gig Photography

I am an experienced event and gig photographer, having been commissioned to captured many live events across the UK. Constantly looking for unique moments, I enjoy integrating movement, authenticity, and human connection into my work.

My work captures a strong dynamic range, working with saturated colours and monochromatic hues, bold natural light and shadow, and attention to detail.

A collection of work ranging from theatre, BTS, festivals, and music events

FILM MAKING

Documentaries

I have filmed and edited several short documentaries and photo-films (self-shoot). I also had a documentary I produced in collaboration with another film-maker premiere on screen in Liverpool. I have selected some stills to display here.

DESIGN, ILLUSTRATION, CREATION

I am also a self-taught artist, competent in pencil and digital drawings, and graphic design. I have completed several traditional and digital portraits, and recently designed and edited a magazine, with all inclusions being original creations. I have experience in graphic design for social media and marketing purposes, including creating original graphics, strong branding, copy, and short form content.

Here I have included a selection of drawings and designs, and pages from my magazine entitled Listen to the Archive. I have also included examples of social media marketing and content creation that I was commissioned to produce.
