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. News paper coverage included the Guardian, Sunday Times and London Illustrated News.

The Gower Peninsula opened the way for developing my interests in the environment. A substantial library of nature and sea scape images was added to my action sports and travel collection.

IThe 80's saw a surge in interest for photos by magazines such as BOARDS and WINDSURF magazines. In 1988 All Action Wind and Surf was published by Waylands .This book lead to more editorial work with magazines such as Outdoors Illustrated as well as advertising 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 Sculpture by the sea uk
