“Do you know the big problem with a disguise Mister Holmes?
However hard you try, it’s always a self-portait”
— Irene Adler
 

About

I specialise in portraiture and performance. Recent work looks at how faces are used, or not used, as part of expression—and whether we can read those faces. After years emphasising athletic and dance imagery, I completed my Masters in Photography at London College of Communication. My recent project Through a Glance, Darkly won the Sproxton Award for Photography.

Philosophy

  • Be nice to people
  • Spontaneity takes practice
  • Orchestrate just-enough
  • Trust the observer effect
