As I said on the home page I got into photography as a result of my job working for Pete Townshend. My early efforts were pretty average but I hope things have improved somewhat! I'm not the most technical of photographers but I like what I take so that's half the battle. Along the way I've had help, advice and encouragement from a couple of great photographers and friends; Tom Wright (www.tomwrightphotography.com/) and Chris Morphet (see his images here - Redferns ). 

Since leaving my job with Pete I've tried to move more into photography as a serious hobby. My main photographic interest is live music but I'm also keen to develop further than that. I'm always looking for new avenues so if anyone has any interesting ideas please let me know.

I've had photographs published in numerous newspapers and magazines, such as Rolling Stone, Billboard, Music Week, NME, Grazia, Hello, Newsweek, NY Times, Guardian, Sun and, of course, The Daily Sport! I've also had a couple of cover shots, most notably on Guitarist magazine. My photo's have also been used a lot on line - quite a few on nme.com and I've also provided a number of music websites with images.

The photography section is split into two areas - music and other - so just click on the links to the left to get to them. Each band or topic has been split into different galleries so just click on the one you want to access that gallery. As a result of some of the emails I've received about buying prints if you're interested in buying any just email me and I'm sure we can sort something out.

Lastly, I'd like to thank a few people for their support - Glorianna, Pat, Steve and Andy in particular.
