I am a Photographer and teacher. As well as commercial work, I have exhibited in group shows and also produce small editions of photographic books. Artist Statement.
I teach one-to-one, helping people with digital cameras, Photoshop, Lightroom, etc., and also as a longer term, photography mentor.
Previously, I was a regular Associate Lecturer for the School of Theatre at Wimbledon College of Art teaching one day a week for over 10 years. This mainly involved working with BA level students on computer based design and visualization as well as making short films and animations. Along with the conceptual and design help, I taught Photoshop, Final Cut Pro, After Effects and 3D software. I also set up and ran the Starting Digital Photography course and Street Photography Workshops for Photofusion.
