Introduction | I’m an award-winning UK-based freelance photographer and writer specialising in landscape and outdoor pursuits, especially bikes of all kinds.

I’m available for photography workshops and one-to-one bespoke training. |
Interests | Bikes of all kinds (I mean proper bikes not motorbikes), walking, climbing, outdoor pursuits in general, books, music, beer. |
Favorite Movies | Sense and Sensibility, The Madness of King George, Silverado, and I'm still waiting for the perfect science fiction movie (if only Star Wars had had a half-decent script!) |
