I'm the annoying one at a party who is constantly causing the table to light up with hundreds of bright falshes as I document everything. When Im in the car I am well known for my sudden request to stop so I can catch a photo of that there sheep wearing a bonnet or whatever I see. I'm very glad of the advent of digital photography because I needed more space for my albums than clothes and I spent more on blu-tac than I did on whatever others things kids my ages spent their money on!

My first job in photography was at the age of 14 when I worked in a photofinishing lab in Peterhead, I loved it because I got to see all the local "professionals" photos first and they trusted me to develope, mount, heat seal and colour spot them with my little paint brush.

I live up in the North East corner of Scotland where the wind blows hard and the rain has a vendetta against me! I love it, I love the people, I love the animals and I love the sea.
