Since I was quite young I always had a facination with camera's and taking photographs.My dad always had a camera in his hand and my interest grew really from there.My very first camera was the Brownie and I used to enjoy going out and just snapping away with no particular subject in mind.in my teens I advanced onto a Halina 35mm which I used to worship everytime I took it out I dont think my results was very good but I was asked to be photographer at a couple of freinds weddings I think to keep the cost down of the wedding more than anything!.

In my early 20's word got around that the photographs of the weddings I had done were pretty good and I started to get bookings in several months in advance,I started to travel around in my beat up Ford Escort taking photographs of churches and anything else that caught my eye.One day after returning late from the coast I was so tired and left my cameras in the boot of my car,the following morning my car had been stolen..I just never had the money to replace my equipment..but im older and a lot wiser these days and have just taken photography up once again in 2008,my prefered camera choice was the Panasonic FZ28,Nikon D40 with standard lens kit and I have also brought the Nikon 50mm F1.8,Sigma 70-300mm lens..this also has the macro facility on it too but i find the Fz28 just as capable in macro mode if not better.More recently I have started to photograph models both amature and the more experienced girls,every girl is so very different and its always a challenge but one thing in life I really enjoy doing.

What a year 2009 has been for me,Ive travelled much more than I thought was possible and have had 12 months of fun doing something im really passionate about and I have loved every last second..meeting lots of new people and going to places I had only ever dreamed about....Ive had a few knocks along the way but that will never put me off.My dream for the next 12 months is to open up my own UK based studio.let 2010 start the way 2009 has finished.
