I was born and raised in England, but have lived in Texas for over forty years.
My work has been published in newspapers, books and magazines, and I have also provided images for several people’s websites, exhibition brochures, catalogs, marketing materials, and for personal use. I have also been given commissions for commercial work. The National Portrait Gallery in London acquired one of my portraits. I have given photographic seminars at Colleges. In 2014 I was invited to exhibit my work at the Mall Galleries, just off Trafalgar Square in London. I have also given talks to many camera clubs. I worked for twelves years with High School students to prepare photographic entries into the State-wide art contest, and was delighted to see those entries highly placed.
I have published two books entitled, “For Love of Cadgwith”, and “In the Heart of Cadgwith”, the proceeds of which went to local charities in Cornwall, England, where we own a vacation home. Prints of some of the photographs in that book have been sold for charity, used for postcards, and bought by individuals. In 2010 I did the photography for a calendar which was sold in aid of Leukemia Research.
In 2011 and 2012 I provided many of the images for the book which accompanied the BBC television series, “The Fisherman’s Apprentice” with Monty Halls; a six part series of one hour programs.
In 2013 I was named “Photographer of the Year” with the Plano Photography Club. I am honored to have been asked to judge many camera club competitions, trained by the Photographic Society of America. I have also served as a portfolio assessor for the Photographic Society of America.
In 2016 I was awarded the distinction of Licentiate with the Royal Photographic Society, London. In 2022 I was awarded the distinction of Associate of the Royal Photographic Society, London.
