I’ve put together a selection of images shot and retouched by myself. The portfolio ranges from client assignments and personal projects.

Retouching: Recent Client & Personal Retouching Work In London
Pic of the Day: Greenpeace Activist Portrait
Last year during a working trip in Vancouver I was commissioned by Greenpeace to document some of their demonstrations and capture images of their activists on the frontline.
Assignment: Light Orb – client portrait photo shoot & concept images
This series of images were self directed, shot and edited recently as a prototype campaign for a new client. The 20 minute portrait photo shoot in Hyde Park, London gave me the creative freedom to experiment with a new prop – a cheap paper lampshade, which doubled up as a useful diffused lightsource and ‘portable moon’.
Wedding of David & Sian Smith, Clifton, Bristol
The wedding of David and Sian Smith was only the second marriage I have photographed. Dave is a close friend of mine and we know each other from the crazy days back in Derby when I was a photography student. I was very honoured and privileged to have been ask to cover their big day, and what a great day it was too.
A Right Royal Brawl – Kicking Some Ass-cot
It was the first time I had covered Royal Ascot and it turned out to be a pretty eventful one. Defined by one fleeting moment – a fisty cuffs brawl between racegoers.
