Lonely Is The Night
This photo was taken in downtown Los Angeles a few years ago. That day, I was waiting for the NBA game between the Lakers and Heat, which was still three hours away. So while waiting, I walked around and took some shots of the city.

A Gazing Owlet
Looking vertically between the gaps in the leaves, hand held at 1/50s due to the lack of light, waiting for this delightful 4 week old little owl owlet to look down and make eye contact. Moment made by the rim light catching on their owlet fluff!

Swan Song
After fostering six children between 2019 – 2023, I learned the hard way how to love and let go, because nothing is permanent. Swan Song looks at the way we’re all in some way frozen in childhood, holding on for dear life, and how children suffering trauma are trapped in their circumstances. Created on a small pond a two mile hike from my house, I brought inflatables, paint, and my lights, camera, and tripod, and a couple hours blowing up swans in the snow, painting them, and finally setting up my light and tripod for this self-portrait. Taken at dusk, the eerie lighting with just a pop of brightness on the subject allowed the atmosphere to fall into an ethereal haze. This image uses the modern element of the swans and juxtaposes it with a timeless atmosphere and wardrobe, heightening the sense of the incongruity of time.

Imprint
‘Imprint’ explores lineage and how this shapes us. Inspired by an imprint left on the back of a frame from an old family photograph. I worked with nature to make this print using different botanicals found in her garden. Through the grid, the work explores identity as fragmented and layered. The work explores pace through the slow process of making. Each print is individually hand printed and toned, welcoming the viewer to slow down. The closed eyes in the portrait invites the viewer to go into an interior space.
I have aphantasia, which means I cannot visualise things in my mind’s eye and, as an artist, I find this quite ironic. This is partly why I am creating a visual archive for myself. Through using faint abstract images, I am aiming to create what I imagine a visualisation would look like.

Half a Second Before
This photo was taken during wrestling event in Denmark. Fast growth of interest in this form of entertainment has turned it from almost unknown to very popular, with major events sold out in the tickets pre-sale.
Photo taken with Leica M10R, Summicron 28mm and manual Godox strobe.

The Lotus
An Urban Landscape. Modern urban residential developments demand a compact, densely designed living space. The reflection of the Lotus floating Chinese restaurant emphasizes the confined space. Taken at the waters of the Inner Millwall Dock on the Isle of Dogs in East London. I wanted to reveal a view of a modern landscape that was once an industrial site.

Teamwork
Red ants are incredibly strong relative to their size, capable of lifting 10–50 times their own body weight. Microscopically, they can support up to 5,700 times their body weight. They possess powerful mandibles, painful venomous stings, and can form “super-colonies” of millions.
Ants actually have four to five times more odour receptors than most other insects. It’s this exceptional sense of smell that helps ants find food.

Magical Uphill Lincoln
This image was taken during golden hour in Lincoln. The image captures the historic streets and architecture of Lincoln as a golden sunset sets in. A slow shutter speed (1/25th) was necessary as this was hand held at night. The golden glow of the sky, cobbles and light from the window add that extra dimension in terms of how the overall image works as a result.

Silent Sentinel
Silent Sentinel is a fine art pet portrait exploring stillness, presence, and quiet guardianship. Captured in natural woodland light, the image was created to emphasise calm strength and watchfulness rather than action. The composition and muted colour palette were chosen to strip away distraction, allowing the subject’s expression and posture to carry the emotional weight of the image. The work reflects my ongoing interest in portraying animals not as props or performers, but as sentient beings with their own inner world.

Red Rebel
The photograph was taken in Bath, UK, on 20th Apr, 2024. Dressed in their distinctive red rebel outfits, the largest global assembly of the Red Rebel Brigade ever seen (400 in total) are pictured as they take part in a ‘funeral for nature’ procession through the streets of Bath to help raise awareness of the damage that mankind is doing to the planet. As the procession made its way up the hill towards the entry to The Circus, I positioned myself at the head of the procession in order to try and use the converging lines of the buildings to create a dynamic image of them making their way up the hill. When they arrived at the top of the hill, they all turned to face downhill to wait for the rest of the cortège to catch up. Seeing this, I positioned myself directly behind the lead activist. I knew that when he turned around to lead the cortège, I would be able to capture the dynamic image that I was looking to get.

Crossing the Curves
A lone cyclist moves through sweeping arcs of light and shadow at the City of Arts and Sciences. Reflections echo the architecture’s rhythm, momentarily aligning human motion with structure, symmetry, and space.

Fish Eyes
The photo shows a Vietnamese fisherman holding two fish in front of his eyes. There is a fishing net behind him. I took this on a boat in Hoi An, Vietnam. I had been taking photos of him fishing and this was the playful end of the photography session.

Fighting Foxes in the Rain
The image shows two foxes who have reared up on their hind legs to assert dominance. They look like a couple from Strictly Come Dancing! The rain adds some atmosphere. These foxes are fairly tame in this area and, when it started raining, we sought shelter. The foxes followed us, as people feed the foxes, and they hoped for some food. This little fight was probably about dominance and was more about ‘top dog’ than aggression. I liked the background rain.
