WHERE DOES YOUR WORK START?
MY WORK STARTS WITH ENERGY, FEELING INSPIRED AND FINDING EXCITING SUBJECTS TO SHOOT. I FIND THAT IDEAS WORK IN THE BACK OF MY HEAD WHEN I'M DOING OTHER THINGS THAT THEN EMERGE IN THE SHOOTS THAT FOLLOW.
WHAT MOST INSPIRES YOU?
THE CONCENTRATED ENERGY OF THE MOMENT; ESPECIALLY AROUND PERFORMANCE, ENERGY, NERVES, ADRENALINE AND THAT MOMENT OF WAITING TO GO TO STAGE IS SOMETHING THAT HAS ALWAYS FASCINATED ME. IT'S AN EMPHEMERAL THING, BUT THE FOCUS OF MY WORK IS TO CAPTURE IT, I'M ALWAYS CHASING IT. IT'S TOUGH, THERE ARE SO MANY MISSED MOMENTS, BUT YOU CAPTURE ONE, IT'S THE MOST INSPIRING FEELIMG IN THE WORLD, AND IT KEEPS ME ENERGISED UNTIL THE NEXT ONE.
PHOTOGRAPHY FOR ME IS CAPTURING THOSE UNSCRIPTED MOMENTS.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT YOUR WORK?
I LOVE THE VARIETY OF IT - THE VARIETY OF SUBJECT MATTER AND THE MIX OF AMAZING PEOPLE I'VE BEEN ABLE TO MEET.
WHAT HAVE BEEN THE BEST BITS OF YOUR CAREER SO FAR?
3 YEARS AGO I WAS WORKING AS A MARKETING MANAGER AT MTV. AND ONE DAY I JUST REALIZED THAT I WOULD NEVER FORGIVE MYSELF IF I DIDN'T TURN MY PHOTOGRAPHY, WHICH WAS THEN A SERIOUS HOBBY, INTO MY CAREER.
TRAVELING WITH THE SCISSOR SISTERS WAS AMAZING. JUST BEING ABLE TO CAPTURE THE TOUR AS THEY MOVED AROUND TO DIFFERENT COUNTRIES, DIFFERENT FANS, DIFFERENT MOODS. ALSO, I WORKED WITH COLDPLAY WHICH WAS AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE, THE WAY THEY CONNECT TO THEIR AUDIENCE IS ASTONISHING.
MY BACKSTAGE WORK IS SOME THAT I'M MOST PROUD OF. IT'S THE AREA OF WORK I'M MOST PASSIONATE ABOUT. CAPTURING THE EXCITEMENT, EXPECTATION, NERVES, THE LOOKS AND TRYING TO WEAVE THAT INTO A COHERENT NARRATIVE, IT'S REALLY EXCITING AND CHALLENGING. AND I'VE ALSO FOUND THAT CLIENTS REALLY LOVE TO HAVE THEIR BACKSTAGE MOMENTS DOCUMENTED, FOR THEM IT ALL HAPPENS SO QUICKLY THAT IT'S SO EASY TO MISS. I'M GOOD AT BLENDING IN BACKSTAGE, IS THE BEST WAY TO CAPTURE PEOPLE AT THEIR MOST NATURAL AND HONEST.
