I have had an interest in photography since I was about 16. I began teaching myself the fundamentals on my first DSLR, a Canon EOS-400D. I developed a huge passion for photography which saw me push myself further. I decided to ditch the digital camera for a while, and practiced more and more on film. This was a huge advantage. I do not believe that digital is better to learn on - it is just more convenient. Deciding to practice on film taught me to take less photos and not 'spray and pray', but to push myself further with each frame as I didn't know 100% if i had 'the shot' for good yet.

After having used film for about 12 months and having built a solid foundation, I went back to digital and purchased my current cameras.

Since then, I have worked in nightclubs as a photographer, photographed bands and live musical performances for magazines, and more recently I have been associated with MarathonPhotos.com photographing triathlons, marathons and cycling events.

Along with these, I am now pursuing a career in documentary/photojournalism photography which I know will be an exciting time for me, and a great place to keep on learning!
