Biography: As a photographer, I draw inspiration from the island of Jersey on which I live: its sometime soft and delicate, sometime harsh and rugged coastline,
its traditional and contemporary architecture, its abundant flora and the individual characters of the locals.
Often, I interpret my subjects in a way that renders them almost abstract by focusing on details and minutiae which may otherwise pass unnoticed.
The results are images that become visual riddles which entice the viewer to explore and interpret them, while at the same time maintaining an aesthetic
quality which can be appreciated...
