When did the photography bug bite? Photography is an important part of my life. Ever since I can remember I have loved capturing precious moments. My earliest photographs were portraits of friends and family.
Why do you enjoy photography? I enjoy freezing a moment in time, capturing images that are fun and full of expression. I also enjoy the challenge and believe, as Plutarch did that - "The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled."
Where can I buy your photos? I have a red bubble store, a stock photo account with fotolia and a profile on gekko images. I enjoy doing photography courses and photography challenges. If you would like to purchase or rent an artwork for your business or organisation please contact me.
