About
“My approach to photography rests on a simple conviction — that light reveals truth.”
I’m a British photographer exploring the human dimensions of displacement, belonging, and community.
I began my creative career as a sculptor, but early on I was drawn to the human stories behind social upheaval and the quiet ways it erodes a person’s dignity. In the early 1990s, I travelled to Bosnia and Croatia as a muralist during the Balkans War, creating work in orphanages to bring comfort to those affected by conflict. Those experiences, and others that followed, became a turning point, leading me toward photography as a way to engage more directly with the world.
Between 2015 and 2017, I worked across Europe on Ashes of War, a project documenting the gruelling journeys of refugees migrating into Europe. In 2016, I began Favela, an ongoing series exploring life on the margins in Brazil’s urban communities. Both projects reflect my continuing interest in how people preserve dignity and identity amid displacement and change.
Photography carries a personal resonance for me. Both my grandfathers were photographers, one documenting London street life in the 1930s, the other recording African tribes during his RAF service in the Second World War. Their curiosity about humanity continues to guide my own work.
Over the years, I’ve produced documentary projects that seek to balance intimacy with broader social context. My practice is guided by long-term engagement with the communities I photograph, combining documentary observation with a reflective sensitivity to place and faith.
My current projects examine migration policy in Europe, religion, and community, exploring how human experience unfolds within the larger systems that shape it.
I live in the United Kingdom.
