PROFILE
 

1986 -Working in London for several years meant the return to Wales and its stunning scenery, surf and lively ambience was a welcome contrast . At this time a new magazine on surfing-The Edge was my focus and later Surf magazine.

PR work at this time included Sports and Youth Foundations. Front Covers included the Sunday Times and London Illustrated News.

 

Living on the doorstep of the Gower Peninsula opened the way for developing my own work. A substantial library of nature and seasscape images was added to by action sports photos.Commisions included Local and National authorities as well as Travel and Sports related companies.

 

In 1988 All Action Wind and Surf was published by Waylands .This book lead to work with magazines such as Outdoors Illustrated as well as work for Sports Hardware companies and Youth Adventure Sports Activity centres.

 

By the 90's a broadening client base included fashion and sports companies, publications such as GQ magazine, Carve , 360 and the Stormrider Guides as well as agencies such as The Picture Book.

 

2002-, the Green Art Project and Ecofest Swansea took my developing interest in Art in The Environment further . This has since developed into photography for the environmental art group
