I'm a husband, father of two boys, and photographer. We are all - including my camera - passionate about the outdoors.

I'm not a professional photographer and therefore, thankfully, I don't have to make a living from my camera, nor my camera from me. Photography is simply a hobby to be enjoyed. When I'm not working (or chasing after my two boys) I spend the little bit of quiet time I have with my camera in the beautiful countryside outside of the medieval cathedral city of Salisbury, England. We create images across the fields, forests and coastlines of Hampshire, Wiltshire and Dorset.

I am very lucky, as living in an old cottage in the British countryside means the inspiration for many of these photographs are on my doorstep, or at least a short walk away. And the public footpaths give me access to many secret places of true beauty. If I have the time - which I seldom do - and up for an adventure, the New Forest, the Solent, the South Downs and the Jurassic Coast, are all just a short drive away. We also love to travel and therefore many of my images are from even further afield.
