«I
was born and still live and work in London as a photographer and
teacher. My work has been published and exhibited in a variety of
different fields with some of it finding its way into public and
private collections. I continue to work on long term personal
projects and have done so since 1983. Most of my projects are shot in
and around London simply because that’s where I live and work and
the place that has influenced me emotionally and visually since a
child. In the last three decades the fabric of London has undergone
many changes and it is these changes that have increasingly
influenced the projects I’ve undertaken.
Most
of my photography is shot candidly. This allows me to be more
spontaneous and objective to the subject. It also means that I’m
not influencing the outcome of the scene and allows it to unravel in
the same way as if I wasn’t there. This is very important to me. »
