What I'm Up To Right Now:
Just getting ready for a series of locations shoots for my second catalogue with a major outdoor clothing company..
Producing a series of chromakey (green screen) shots of the latest collection from haute couture designer Karl Bowman. First few are in my portfolio now, more to follow...
Last month we opened my New Work Show at my gallery, featuring 20 new limited edition landscape prints...
I have a couple of specific fine art projects in mind, and a couple of galleries who are quite keen to show some new, non-landscape work. I'll post casting calls for these projects when I have time.
About Me:
I'm a professional photographer, based in the UK's Lake District National Park and best known for my atmospheric fine art landscape work. I have a large studio and gallery in a small village near Penrith in Cumbria.
My landscape work has been published in many national publications, including a double-page in The Times. One of my images was selected for in inclusion in an exhibition at The Tate Gallery in 2007.
My landscape work is represented by Trigger and Getty image libraries.
Having spent the last six years concentrating my landscape portfolio I'm now including more humanbeings in my work.
Background:
I learned my craft working as a freelance assistant in London, working on everything from fashion to food shoots. I have also worked as an illustrator and designer, and have been using Photoshop since version 1.0. I've got many years experience finishing images to extremely high standards. Most of work ends up as large C-Type prints.
My website has landscape and commercial portfolios:
