I developed a passion for photography at a very young age, when my father taught me how to develop black-and-white prints when I was about 8 years old.
I had a small photography studio back when I was running my graphic design business; at the time, I was shooting in 5 x 7 medium format, before switching to digital.
After a break of a few years, I rediscovered my passion for photography and am sharing some of my works here. I hope you enjoy them.
I've partnered with Printumo who suppply fine art paper prints on premium natural matte fine art paper. This smooth, matte-textured paper is perfect for those who want a high-quality, natural finish for their digital prints.
Their wooden frames are made in Italy and come with premium plexiglass. They operate in many countries around the world to deliver premium products at a great price wherever you are.

New course starting on 1st or 2nd September 2026 at Galerie JS, Monflanquin
This course is aimed at anyone wishing to sketch in pen or pencil and incorporate colour washes with watercolours.
Sketching is all about recording what you see in a quick and looser manner. Mistakes are less important as it's all about recording the moment and moving on.
Complete beginners are most welcome.

After the sell-out volume one of my collection of sketches, I've put together a new selection in a handy sized A5 landscape booklet.
Heavier weight paper and a great soft-feel cover for a luxurious touch. A completely new set of sketches, all made on location 'en plein air'.
