Updates to the Shop
I’ve added some additional images to the Redbubble store, here you can get prints in various styles of a wide range of photos. Some of these won’t be staying as I try to focus in on specific types of photography, at the moment I’m still debating on which areas I want to focus more heavily…

Watercress Festival 2023
Listed on timewellspentmag.com as one of the UK’s most Weird and Wonderful Attractions, the Watercress Festival is held every summer in the town of Alresford in Hampshire (pronounced awlz·fuhd).

Exhibitions and Fundraising
Just a short post today, mostly ask for your assistance. I’ve been given an opportunity to exhibit in London, part of a group exhibition, but it’s not cheap to exhibit, just printing and travel alone can get expensive, let alone any additional fees.

Photography Influences – Greg Williams
My previous posts were more about my street photography Influences, but as I’ve explored portrait photography I discovered Greg Williams, known for photographing celebrities, in amazing fun candid photos, and imaginative and surprisingly simple posed shots. I think my favourite is the shots of Kate Winslet, absolutely stunning. Add in this one of Brenda Fräser,…
