"Photographing people and places is my passion, either in the studio or preferably on location. I like the collaborative process of working with people, exploring ideas and sorting out all the logistics for a shoot. For me working on ideas and trying to create images is more interesting than just having the ability to capture an image. Having worked as a commercial photographer my understanding of production, concepts, lighting and design are important elements of my photography.
My use of lighting and the relationship between my subject and the background is a fundamental part of my on-location portraits. I enjoy photographing people in an environment that they have some relationship with. How they react to the surroundings and how it makes them feel is an important part of how I create my images.
Born and educated in England, I have been based in Stockholm, Sweden since 1998. As well as being an experienced commercial photographer, I also work as a Fine Art photographer and have taught photography for many years at Folkuniversitetet and KSPHOTO."
I enjoy teaching photography, it has become an important part of my career. Photography has been good to me, by sharing my knowledge and experience with others it feels good to give something back in return.
My portfolio on this website includes some of my work from both England and Sweden. For example Atlas Copco, English Heritage, Help the Aged, SAS, Svenka Spec, etc. The aim with all my photography is to create images that are dramatic and expressive, images that can convey and evoke emotions".
