Images are presented such that the colour and quality of the light found in the landscape becomes the core component - the heart - of the image. Viewpoints are often chosen with no significant foreground detail to evoke the greatest possible sense of space and light. Dramatic cloudscapes or haunting atmospheric conditions transform and mutate the images, conveying a sense of unease and foreboding, subverting their traditional subject matter. Instead of 'wishing we were there' these environments remain enigmatic, unwelcoming and ambiguous.

Recent contemporary work includes the ‘Naked’ series which shows lone figures in vast, primal landscapes. Though individually vulnerable and insignificant, the figures highlight the contradiction that humanity as a whole has brought these fragile environments to the edge of extinction. The ‘Machinations’ series depicts the creeping encroachment of artificial structures in pristine environments, questioning man's efforts to mould and utilise the landscape.

In the 'Abstracts' series luminance and darkness clash in enigmatic, abstract forms and textures. As with all my images, they are exhibited with only a vague geographical reference, the viewer left to interpret them using their own perceptions, memories and imagination.

The 'Commissions' section of this website shows work in other styles including editorial, action, location portrait and product photography.
