It all began when

I was given my very first camera at the age of 8. It was a big, bulky black thing (well to my little hands anyway!) with this small, round lens fixed to the front, a turny thing on the top for winding the film on, a small window that you could look through to see your picture, and this magical white button protruding into the air from the top plate that every time you pressed it it would take a photo! It was rather fittingly called a Box Brownie, and that was basically all it was, a box that took photos. But to me it was a magical box and I was enthralled by it! The ability to actually capture a moment in time and preserve it forever was just fascinating. From that moment on all I wanted to do was finish school and be a professional photographer.

During my early teens I was fortunate to gain valuable experience working in an established photography studio and then at the young age of 16 I set up shop on my own. I started off shooting weddings and portraits. Back then, however, most weddings were on a Saturday so I used my weekdays freelancing for various publishing houses and magazines. I was commissioned to shoot just about everything imaginable - interiors, products, celebrities, landscapes, special events and occasions, you name it. I also had the honour of working alongside some amazing people, both photographers and editors, from whom I learned so much! 

It was also in my mid teens that I picked up the guitar and fell in love with music and have been writing and composing songs ever since. Nowadays, with the demand for content creators, it’s a pleasure to be able to combine my two loves of photography and music into projects and productions!
