I have arrived at a photographic style that involves multiple exposures, intentional camera movement and other creative techniques, including the use of specialist and vintage lenses.

My images rarely depend for understanding on location, rather they offer a space where the viewer can decide what they are seeing for themselves. To borrow a line from Eric Bogle, I like to  ‘… leave blank spaces for people’s minds to fill in for themselves …’ Water seems to seep into many of my images.
