Our studio with Jenny, my wife, setting up a shot. Assistant, Sarah, is to the right.

I studied art for three years, which led to my first job in design at WHS Advertising. Moving on after a couple of years, I took positions in both agencies and design companies, becoming increasingly involved in photography.

I switched to photography full-time in the late seventies and set up my studio in 1984 in Greater London, concentrating exclusively on advertising photography.

My studio work has been extremely varied, shooting a wide range of products, from electronics, food and drink to large room sets.

Much of my location work took place in London, photographing interiors and urban landscapes. However my work also took me away from home. For example, I carried out a commission for Kodak in Ireland and for another client, I photographed a property development in the south of Spain.

I now only work in the studio on table-top product photography, principally jewellery. As a sideline, I also take photographs for a picture library.

Much of the latter work has been printed in media across the world as well as broadcast on national and international television.
