I have been a professional photographer for 14 years now and recently shot my 500th wedding. I mainly photograph weddings and families but will point my camera at pretty much anything anyone asks me to (within reason!).
I am married to Anna and have two wonderful kids; Jago (15) and Ruby (13). Harley, the working cocker spaniel (named after the mighty Harlequins ), completes our little team. We live in Farnham, Surrey but I travel all over the country shooting wedidngs.
In my spare time (of which I have loads, of course) I love running, playing tennis and generally keeping fit. It all helps when I am on my feet all day at a wedding, or mucking about on a family shoot.
Why do I like photographing weddings, families and people in general? I like the notion that I am creating a little slice of social history. I record people, their friends, their family and their special occasions; memories that might otherwise be fuzzy or even lost. My aim is to try to make the best photograph that exists of the person or people in question. To make photos that will sit on the mantlepiece or in the album, be passed down through the generations and say, "That was me, that was us, look what we did together".
It's an incredibly satisfying job and I really love doing it.
