Summary

For more than 20 years, I’ve specialised in food, drink and still life photography, working with some of the UK’s leading design, advertising and editorial agencies. During that time, I’ve partnered with brands including Amazon, Dolmio, Flora, Harvey Nichols, Hotel Chocolat, Mitchells & Butlers, SPAR, Travelodge and Waitrose, creating imagery that brings the food and products to life across a wide range of campaigns and platforms.

I have photographed more than 50 cookbooks for leading publishers and celebrity authors, alongside advertising campaigns, food packaging, restaurant and hotel brands, social media content, digital platforms, print advertising and point-of-sale materials. My work has appeared throughout the UK and across Europe.

My photography is defined by a fresh, natural approach that captures the colour, texture and atmosphere in an authentic and engaging way. Whether working to a tightly defined creative brief or collaborating with a team to develop ideas on set, I focus on producing imagery that is both visually striking and commercially effective.

Along with stills photography, I also create motion content, bringing an added layer of energy and storytelling to brands. Combining technical expertise with a strong creative eye allows me to produce high-quality visual content that works seamlessly across today's digital and print channels.

Clients trust me to deliver not only exceptional imagery but also a smooth, reliable production process. I’m known for being collaborative, adaptable and solutions-focused, integrating seamlessly with creative teams while maintaining a calm, positive atmosphere on set. My aim is always the same: to make every shoot as enjoyable as it is successful, while delivering work that exceeds expectations.
