About

I am a photographer based in the Eastern Cape, South Africa.

Photography has been a part of my life for almost as long as I can remember and as time passes, it becomes more important to me.

My passions for exploration and capturing the image have led me to photograph a very wide variety of subjects for clients and myself over the years but in the end it is the photography that feeds my soul, the photography that really gives me joy, that I think about the most.

Photography of birds and of stage performance are two areas of photography that really do achieve that for me, because they are both challenging and I find the subject matter so enthralling. I hope you will enjoy some of the images I have shared here.
