About

I am an experienced photographer and photographic assistant and have worked extensively across the broader creative industries as well. I specialise in fashion editorial and fine art photography, working primarily through the medium of 35mm and 120mm film and have worked throughout Europe and the United States. I am also an experienced lighting technician and am capable with setups involving both continuous and strobe lighting. I have a bachelor of arts in Film Studies and English Literature as well as an eclectic interest in a vast range of other cultural disciplines including music, fashion, fine art, media and the culinary arts. I have volunteered extensively on issues ranging from development and human rights to the environment and education.
