Our Wills and Fates do so Contrary Run

I started my career in photography by pure fate. Driving into work one afternoon the planets lined up in my favour!

No red lights and no traffic jams. I arrived early. I walked into the office and was rewarded for being the first in by being offered a photography course. I’d always been interested in photography so I jumped at the chance.

A few months later I had a great time being taught the finer details of photography. That started my lifelong learning about the subject and I was eager to learn as much as possible. Four years later, I left my job and moved into professional photography.

In 2024, I still enjoy photography.

Since those early beginnings, I’ve spent a small fortune on camera equipment. That is likely a familiar theme for most photographers.

I currently have a mix of cameras.

I use 35mm full-frame Panasonic Lumix cameras and lenses for anything I consider “serious”.

I’ve also got a Canon 40D and recently a Canon 5D, these are my “play” cameras.

Not that the camera you use has any bearing on photography.

This website shares some of the photographs I’ve taken personally and professionally over the years.
