About

It all started back in 1997 when I photographed my first comet using a simple film SLR camera, this started a passion for Astrophotography which naturally progressed into Weather, Lightning and finally Landscape photography.


Because I have had a keen interest in meteorology and astronomy since childhood, I was able to capture (and become well known for) some fascinating images of The Milky Way, Comet Hale Bopp and spectacular night time Thunderstorms.


As technology grew and improved so did my ability and passion for photography, which took me to many unknown IOW locations to try and capture something interesting and unique, and being a true Islander my knowledge of the island was and still is second to none.


I currently provide images for a wide selection of businesses and agencies including BNPS, Red Funnel and Isle of Wight.com and I often have my work published in the national papers, occasionally having multiple images published per month.
I have appeared on a channel 4 documentary about severe weather (Britains Wildest Weather) and more recently I managed to win the public vote for the Royal Meteorological society image of the year. You can view the winning image here.

As well as the above, I have been a photography instructor for many years now, usually just focussing on 1 to 1 tuition, although I gradually expanded this to larger groups in the last few years, but during the 2022 season I had to put my classes on hold due to vocal chord paralysis, however my voice has healed and I am back with a whole new selection of classes and workshops for 2023!
