Happiness defines my photography. The natural world is so incredibly benevolent and for me it is all about being in that most precious space. It's no coincidence that is both my escape and sometimes a point of solace far away from the rigours and responsibilities that so often characterise peoples' lives. I like to think that some of that emotion is conveyed in my images. To capture that feeling in such a way my pictures might relate to someone who didn’t have the privilege of being there with me. Whilst I am not a full time professional photographer my work has been commended in the British Wildlife Photography Awards (BWPA), Bird Photographer Of The Year (BPOTY) and UK Wildlife Trusts. I have also written a variety of wildlife photography articles published across a range of media both in the UK and abroad which I thoroughly enjoy. All the images shared on this site are taken from my wildlife adventures, most of which are captured close to home in the Suffolk countryside. If I can share my work with others; to encourage awareness and in some small way an appreciation of the natural world all around us, then I am supremely happy.
