in
1991...
I
packed in my life in civil engineering and after hitch hiking
around Africa and Australia, went to night school to further my
hobby - photography. In 1993 I turned full time professional,
and developed a unique style, which sometimes caused a bit of
a stir!. But it meant I kept being asked to test new products
for people like Hasselblad and Kodak, and giving talks and seminars
on photography to colleges and organisations.
in 2000...
I was sponsored by FujiFilm and others to go to Romania to document
the positive impact of aid from the west on street
kids and orphans.
The images went on to become a major exhibition
hosted by the Royal Photographic Society and the Romanian ambassador.
Last year I began testing products again. This
time for Digital
SLR User Magazine and Photo 360.
But it's our training that's recently gone from
strength to strength. In 2007 my TV producer partner Jayne and
I wrote our first online
digital photography course - 'Digital Photography
Exposed', and we've just launched 'Wedding
Photography Exposed' (in case you fancy doing it
yourself!).
I also do One-to-One
photography courses in the very picturesque New Forest.
