After a decade of gigging, touring and recording I traded in my drum sticks for shutter clicks; I moved from being at the back of the stage to the photo pit in front of it. I cut my teeth shooting in dive bars and club nights working my way up to arena shows and the in-house photographer role at Preston Guild Hall before it’s closure. More than 20 years of experience working in and around the music industry to date. 

I further honed my skills shooting artist and band promo portraits over the years which lead me to opening two studios to shoot from. Firstly, near Chorley before moving to my current location on the outskirts of Preston city centre. Owning and running my own studio has also led me to working with various business professionals and brands on a wide variety of content - from standard head shots, website content and full rebranding shoots. 

Away from the studio and gig nights I’ve been lucky enough over the last few years to shoot at some of the biggest comic cons all over the country working with cast members from some of the most noteworthy film & tv franchises the likes of Star Wars, Marvel & DC, Lord Of The Rings & The Hobbit, Stranger Things, The Vampire Diaries, Supernatural and many more. 

I’ve been extremely lucky to have had some incredible experiences in my career thus far but there’s always another adventure to look forward to.
