Me and my daughter.

About Me

I am a documentary photographer who enjoys questioning intimacy, the human condition and looking at the use of light used in renaissance paintings. Im drawn to photographing sensitive and evocative subject matter.

Being a single parent of 2, I have been researching masculinity and the pressures of growing up being identified as male. With no real strong masculine figure in my sons life, im using photography as a way of exploring masculinity.

My previous project looking at the quiet moments within my sons life, stretch over a year and resulted in a group exhibition in Bristol and a book
