Having begun my career as the sole photographer on a local newspaper I then joined the Cassidy and Leigh photo agency producing news and feature photography for national and international publications.
After 5 years I then began to freelance, concentrating on sports photography and taking feature images and portraits of the competitors as well as photographing specific events. Initially covering football, I started to photograph multisport events such as triathlon and duathlon during the summer months. Finding a liking for these and the people involved, coverage of these sports now forms a major part of my work.
In recent years I have covered the World Championships of various sports, the Commonwealth Games and, the Beijing Olympic Games, for clients around the world.
