Hello and welcome to my website
I am a nature photographer from South East England. I have been incredibly fortunate to have spent my life exploring the Suffolk Coast, declared an area of outstanding natural beauty and renowned for its unique nature. Having grown up with this on my doorstep, there is no surprise that my passion for the natural world was ignited from a very young age. It was not until receiving my first ever camera as a gift for my 12th birthday, however, that my love for photography was established.
I am thankful to have been able to combine both my passion for nature and photography into my career, travelling to some of the wildest corners on Earth. From searching for Polar bears in the Canadian Tundra, watching the Aurora Borealis in -30º temperatures, to laying on a street at 3am in London photographing urban Foxes, it sure has been an amazing journey so far...
In 2017 I combined my passion for Bears and love of travel and co-founded BearPhoto, which is a company that specialises in organising photo tours throughout Europe and beyond in search of this stunning apex predator.
Proudly supported as a f-stop Brand Ambassador
