Profile  
 

After living in South Africa for 17 years I returned to live in the UK in 1998, where I was born. As I live a somewhat nomadic lifestyle I like to think of myself as an 'accidental tourist', photographing and writing about unusual places, spaces and people. Some projects are published, some are exhibited, some are just documented anyway. All my work is for sale. Should you see something you like, then please do contact me for more information.

I also facilitate photographic workshops, teaching camera techniques and skills, digital imaging as well as the magical world of the black & white darkroom. The workshops vary in length from 10-week courses to 1-day workshops and are created for specific participants. Please visit the 'workshops' page to find out about current photo-trips and workshops, or contact me for more information.
