Based in Reading, UK, I am an Automotive Photographer, working with customers to create the right outcome for their business. Whether that is capturing the detailed restoration of a classic Ferrari to the story of a weekend racing. Bringing to life the details that matter to the viewers, through social media, PR, advertising or the creation of a Coffee Table book that is used to help sell the craftsmanship of a recreation of some of the world’s finest sports cars.

Being freelance, I also work on retainer for clients, to help build the visual branding over time, to help get recognised by clients and the broader audience.

Documentary and storytelling is the work I really enjoy putting together with clients, understanding what outcomes a client is wanting to achieve.

For Avants Magazine, I have produced complete articles, photography and writing, covering Le Mans Classic, with Dominic Dobson, Goodwood Festival of Speed’s community over the course of the weekend, portraits of Amy Shore for a feature about her, and Twisted Automotive in Thirsk.
