How I work
I believe in self-learning, and I’m always up for something new to explore.
I adhere to a strict code of conduct and don’t believe in photoshop, or do much if any post processing. It has to be an exceptional day for me to crop an image.

Changing times
I was born in 1988, which meant that I got a first class ticket to experience the world converting from analogue to digital during m...

Lifelong love of black and white
