***** April 2021 UPDATE *****

Like so many others 2020/2021 was a was out in many many ways and mine has culminated in yet more furlough but enough was enough so it was time to change so quit my job, got another and looking forward to where that might go.

So what has that got to do with my photography you rightly ask? Well, with lots of time on my hands and a good amount of reflection, I have realised that I miss my photography and that I'd like to pick it back up.

I don't have the most modern camera etc but what I do have is a desire to work with people that are interested in what images we can make, experiment with ideas (especially if they cause us to have a good laugh) and then to share our creations.

I'm particularly interested in working from a models home and experimenting with natural light through windows or any other existing light sources that may be to hand.

With that in mind (and subject to pandemic guidelines) I really would like to hear from anyone that might be interested in this and we go from there with a view to perhaps arranging something this summer.

Stay safe

***** JAN 2020 UPDATE *****

So, as you may be able to see below, 2019 didn't really go to plan, but right now its changing.

I have now two shoots booked and trying to arrange a 3rd.

Ideally I'm looking to work with models that can shoot from home as I love the challenge of using whatever light is available to us.

As for shoot ideas, I'm very happy to chat about any that you a have give them a go.

Anyway, if you've read this far, I thank you for sticking with me and if you get to the end of these portfolio notes, I admire your stamina and I hope to hear from you soon.

Stay safe

***** Sept 2019 UPDATE *****

FINALLY, work pressure has subsided and I find myself looking towards the winter months with a few days at weekends able to shoot and even a couple of spare days holiday to potentially use for weekday shoots.

If I'm of interest to you, send me a message and we'll start a chat up.

Stay safe.

**Early 2019 UPDATE**

OK, 2018 didn't go to plan - personal life was hectic regarding family commitments and work was intense.

I now find myself at a time where I need to do things for me and I long to get back into this hobby. The end of a large work contract is in view (should be complete by Mach/April) so demands from part of my life will be significantly reduced.

I hope to do maybe a handful of shoots but they are likely to have to take place at weekends or I am prepared to take the occasional Friday off of work for the right model with the right location and the desire to try to work together to achieve mutually beneficial images.

If the above has momentarily cuaght your attention, please read on and hopefully you'll end up sending me a message and we'll go from there.

Stay safe

**MAY 2018 EDIT **

It's been a while since I have managed to do a shoot.... Far too long if I'm honest with you.

I've certainly not lost the desire, just time (and money) has not been available but now the kids are that but older and work is steady once more, it is my genuine hope that I might be able to do a small handful of shoots a year.

If you are happy to help with my return to photography, please read on and hopefully I'll hear from one of you soon.

*** ORIGINAL PROFILE. ***

Although only a hobbyist photographer I am very keen to continue pushing my abilities to achieve the highest possible quality of images that I can.

Due to a change in work, I've unfortunately been unable to add any new images to my page for over a year (although some have gone up from older shoots) but I'm far from giving up on photography and can regularly be found on here keeping an eye on what's going on.

TF Shoots

I'm very happy to do mutual TF so we can help with new images for each other

I'm more than happy to help newer models with getting images they desire to the levels of their choice on a TF format. For such shoots I am willing to not only give the model a disc of the better images from the day but also send them copies of any images that are subsequently manipulated on the understanding that I am credited at all times should one of my images be used.

Paid Shoots

I might consider paying for the right model with the right location, especially if it's for something I've not tried before - feel free to approach me and we can discuss things further :-)

Current aims

At present I would like to try and concentrate on photography in a location where we use just the available light (natural or domestic) in order to try and create soft, hopefully sensual, images of the model in a relaxed environment. I really have enjoyed creating this type of image in a models home using whatever light we can put together and would jump at the chance to do more of this sort of shooting.

Nudity is not a requirement for us to work together.

If you have any queries I would be more than happy to answer them for you, just drop me a quick message and I’ll get back to you as quickly as possible.

Would love to hear from anyone interested in working with me in order to create some images together
