My photographic journey began back in 2006, when I found my Gramps’ Praktica LTL3 in a cupboard, and asked my mum if I could run a film through it. After that first film, I was hooked.

I have struggled with mental health conditions for my whole adult life, but through all that, photography has been a constant for me. A reason to keep pushing on.

Fast forward to 2022, and I started studying photography at Portsmouth Uni, which has led me to where I am now.

I shoot film and digital, but I have no fixed style. Increasingly I’m interested in portraiture. I do love to explore darkroom techniques and processes, but I also experiment with the ways and means of creating digital images.

I am very interested in the physicality of an image, which is what led me to modern tintypes and dryplates (from Zebra Dry Plates) and also recently, the wet plate colodion process.
