I am a 46 year old semi professional photographer who has mainly worked on shoots purely for my own pleasure in and around wider full time work committments. More recently since taking early retirement and stepping into a more background director role for the business I have found myself with considerably more time to pursue my passion for photography with the aim of looking to produce some exhibition work around a number of themes.
I am based for part of my time in the UK close to Manchester but live in Porto Portugal, but travel quite considerably (yet another passion) so will be looking to shoot in a wide variety of locations.
I have completed some paid shoots but these have tended to be for companies looking to produce corporate brouchures using models alongside products.
The themes I would like to explore are many and varied: rural isolation looking to shoot in remote and desolate locations, historic derelict sites mixing the past with current beauty, outdoor coast and mountains, life shoots to reflect the treadmill of work and life, nature and natural beauty also to explore some more edgy themes around sexual art and the portrayal of women along with fettish and facination...finally a shoot called all things i
Anyone who works with me will find my a genuine and easy going individual who now has the time and resources to enjoy my photography who is looking to work with models who also share a passion in creating something that bit more unique.
I am new to this site so do not have references from models I have worked with on this site, if this is an issues for some of you I fully understand. I look forward to working with lots of new people!
