My fascination with film began Christmas 1958 when my father bought me an Admira 8mm Cine Camera. I was out the door and making my first film front of the house even before the first signs of snow-laden light were penetrating the morning horizon and was utterly hooked. At the age of 16, I left school and was offered a job through the Evening Standard Classified as a messenger boy for a Wardour Street based Film Company. On my moped, I collected and delivered cans of film between clients and labs. This job was something I enjoyed, and I never looked back, until now. I have had a fascinating career in Film, TV, and working as a Cinematographer, and I have had the pleasure of working with such luminaries including, Nic Roeg, Gillies Mackinnon, Ken Loach, Tim Burton, James Ivory, Jane Campion, Antonia Bird, and Woody Harrelson to name but a few. Working with these cuminaries truly was an incredible experience, and I consider myself very fortunate to have had the privilege. Lensing has always been my passion, and I have always carried a camera wherever I have been. For me, photography has always been a visual gateway, a way of reporting and documenting what I see and how I see. Now, I am concentrating my view on the world of stills and wrapping my eyes around the digital mind space one frame at a time.
