Living in the Hope Valley all my life surrounded with some of the most stunning scenery it is no surprise that mymain passion is with landscape photography.
There is nothing I enjoy more than being up on the hills and moors withmy camera waiting for the first light of day or watching the late afternoon light flood over the landscape throwing long shadows bringing out the colour and texture of gritstone and grasses, waiting to capture that perfect moment that shows off the Peak District in all its glory.
I first got interested in photography as a young boy using my dad’s Box Brownie camera producing contact prints in a make shift darkroom under the stairs.
Technology has moved along way over the years and I now shoot solely with a DSLR and produce a range of prints and greetings cards which can be ordered through my website and at various shops and galleries in and around the Peak District.
I also run photography tuition workshops for individuals and small groups of all abilities where I will show you how to get the best out of your camera and how to “see” and compose good images.
