For those unfamiliar with my name (say as 'Greg'). I have spent the last few years since 2010 as a music photographer, only in more recent years deciding to test myself further in the world of fine art, street/humanist and documentary photography too.

As a music photographer I have been widely published including in national print magazines and across album and EP covers. I operate primarily within the UK music scene in which I specialise mainly in studio based portraiture (location shoots too) but also live gig imagery of touring level bands and artists from the UK and across the world. There is a separate website for my music photography which you can see by visiting www.greigclifford.com/musicphotography.

However, when I'm not busy with music photography I like to explore photographic ideas that fall outside the remit of promotional band portraiture and live event shots. I try to create images that are equally at home displayed on a wall or in a publication. I take inspiration from the classic documentary and original street photographers of yesteryear, particularly those who combined the documentary style with a highly artistic black and white aesthetic, and I try to apply a similar timeless feel to my own image making.

I love to people-watch. I like to create images as a quiet unnoticed spectator of life around me. I don't usually want my presence to affect what's going on in front of my lens. I'm particularly drawn to creating images that hint at non-tangible elements of human nature, like emotions and all manner of connections and interactions between people and the world around them.

I live in a seaside town in the South of England, a location well suited for coast, country and city life. I visit London often, and occasionally have opportunities to travel further, even abroad from time to time. So, although I sometimes make images of a more exotic nature, my photography comes usually from the more ordinary surroundings of my daily life.

As a consequence, you're unlikely to see many photos of war zones or long lost jungle tribes here. I'd like to hope, though, that my images are therefore more relatable to a wider public, perhaps finding emotional connections on a personal level... to hopefully find a place in your print collection?

I'm always looking to make new contacts... if you like what I do, please do say hi. If you are keen and able to help bring my photography to a wider audience I'd be very happy to hear from you!
