Creating the dark....with light
"a fusion of Paolo Roversi, Robert Mapplethorpe and Sarah Moon but filtered through gothic couture"
photography, Done differently...
My work sits at the intersection of fashion and portraiture, approached with precision, and intent.
Typically, my photographs are dramatic, high key portraits, akin to the style seen in Hollywood in the 1920s, but with an emphasis on celebrating the dark shadows with a mysterious allure. The result is work that feels deliberate, measured, and resistant to fads and trends, and was celebrated by being selected in the final of Film Photographer of the Year 2026.
I collaborate selectively, working with designers, stylists, and subjects who share an understanding of the work’s direction and who share my unique (and increasingly rare) perspective.
All photographs are produced using analogue film, personally processed and digitised as part of a controlled, tactile, and very real workflow. This is not a stylistic affectation, but a practical choice; supporting consistency, discipline, and "intentionality" at every stage of production.
Based in the UK, I have spent over two decades refining my approach. Available for London campaigns, and globally subject to schedules.
