About

I am a London-based photographer specialising in classical music and portraiture.

As a self-taught photographer with a background in classical music, my work draws from the energy and emotion of the music itself, reacting instinctively, connecting with musicians, and occasionally still playing. This unique perspective enables me to create authentic, impactful images that resonate with audiences and the industry.

Beyond music, my work explores themes of personal connection, from the complexities of queer body image to the evocative seascapes of my home. Whether photographing landscapes, still life, or people, my approach is intuitive, grounded in presence, and driven by creativity.

Accredited member of the AOP.
