1998-2000 Studied Performing Arts at Shrewsbury Collage of Art and Tech

I'm a family man and have been married for many wonderful years to an amazing woman called Emma, together we have 4 fantastic children and just as fantastic grandchildren, 1 Cat and 1 hyper husky. 

I am an ex volunteer as a Sergeant Instructor for Shropshire Army Cadet Force, working with young people, helping them achieve all they never thought they could. With this I am DBS Checked and carry a current First Aid at Work certificate.

I discovered photography in 2014 when I was given some money to buy my camera from my good friend John. I had remembered how back in the 80s and early 90s it was normal to have your photo taken and placed into an album. Something I feel we have lost with todays generation.

I didn't want to not miss out on photographing my family and documenting their lives, and from the use of my camera I also found video recording and currently run 3 YouTube channels, but that's another story.

I soon decided I wanted to do more with my camera and found that photographers have a place in the performing and media sectors, so rather than retrain in performing arts, I enrolled on to a media production course.

Here I found my love of headshot and product photography taking headshots for the acting students and working with KK Downing to take photos of his product Metal for Men. (I cant thank Mr Downing enough for allowing me that pleasure)

So here I am today, opening my business in Bridgnorth, specialising in Commercial profile headshots and portraits along with product photography and more, video production, editing and YouTube.
