About a year ago I decided that I needed to develop my photography further than just taking images and entering competitions - it was already beginning to feel like it wouldn’t be enough to keep me fully focussed.

For several years in my 30s I worked in training and it’s a period in my life that still holds fond memories - helping people develop is a great feeling. So I decided I’d do the same with my photography and adopted the strapline “Decoding the Image Puzzle” . That’s my objective - to show how I plan, shoot & process my images. Lectures, workshops, behind the scenes videos, processing tutorials are all part of this. I have no end game in sight, I’m certainly not trying to develop a business, but I’m finding this new angle to my photography is really keeping me engaged. No longer is it enough to just get the shot because now I need to think about how I’ll demonstrate the process to others. I’ve received lots of help myself over the last 5 years so if I can help anyone else, however small the contribution, that will be reward enough.

Anyway, enough of my rambling - here’s my YouTube Channel - this is my main outlet for showing how I go about things. If you subscribe you’ll get notifications whenever I post new videos.
