I’m a North Yorkshire based photographer, writer and communications trainer.
Creativity has always played a part in my life but it is only in recent years that photography has become more than an occasional hobby.
My experience of web sites and blogging led to a commission to document the construction of a major property in my home town of Kirkbymoorside. That involved over two years of photographic work, covering the demolition of a derelict building through to the completion of a multi-million pound country house. The resulting coffee table book will not be publicly released but re-invigorated my interest in photography.
In the last two years I have completed two documentary projects. The first of these was the local pigeon racing club – the ‘Kirkby Flying Club’ and the second ‘Women of Kirkbymoorside‘.
Books on both of these projects have been published using Blurb and local exhibitions have attracted great support.
