I began my wedding career and photographing people with Putmans Photographers.
At the time being the top studio in the region giving me the best training I could wish for,
I gained essential wedding experience and also the art of dealing with people in a friendly yet professional way.
I was employed here for around 12 years.

In1991 I qualified with The BIPP & MPA gaining the Licentiate grade.
In 1993 I won a major National Fuji Wedding Award with over 1200 entry's from all over the UK.
In 1999 I qualified with The SWPP at the Licentiate grade.

In 2002 with the SWPP, I achieved highly commended in the wedding category.

I regularly attend SWPP & other photography seminars and workshops to keep up to
date with today's market and new trends in photography.
And also run my own workshops to develop my style & ideas.

My first interests in photography was at the Clacton Camera club just after leaving school.
I then studied at Barking College in 1986 gaining C&G distinctions in Photography and Design.

Outside of photography
My next passion is music, being a RnB/Soul/New Jack Dj on pirate & community radio since the late 80s

Sometimes I like to link photography & music by photograph at gigs & concerts.
