I'm currently living in France and i successfully completed a course (2006/7) studying the Art of Photography via distance learning with the Open College of the Arts, based in the UK. I am now continuing to futher my photography knowledge and have started my own small photography business; with a few personal photographic projects on the go! August 2008 was the month my first photography book was published by Halsgrove, a small hardback book titled The Spirit of the Fell Pony containing full colour images of this British native pony in their natural enviroment in Cumbria. June 2010 saw the publication of my second photography book, again with Halsgrove, titled The Spirit of the Welsh Mountain Pony.

I bought my first camera when i was 12 years old and my love for photography grew from there.

I have a small seletection of camera equipment:

Lumix G1 DSLR with

14 - 45 mm lens

45 - 200 mm lens

Old manual Pentax SLR

Digital Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ5

Having had a love of Art for many years, both my grandmother and mother are painters, i have enjoyed looking more into the artistic side of photography. For me the simple but stunning beauty of nature is what inspires me, along with my great love of equines and animals overall. I also take great interest in still life photography, looking closely at the use of light, shape, and colours.
