What advice would you give a photographer starting out in the industry?
It’s not as easy to make a living from photography as it was 10 years ago. Don’t think that just because you have completed a photography course that you can now become a photographer. Unfortunately, being a good marketer is probably more important for financial success than being a good photographer.
What was the most challenging assignment you have ever had either physically or emotionally?
The first wedding I ever photographed. Especially since I had never even attended a wedding before.

What is the most unique project you have worked on and why
No particular job stands out. Photographing weddings is always unique in it’s own way as you are dealing with different personalities each time.
What inspired you to start taking photos?
I loved being able to make something ordinary look extraordinary in a photo.
How did you become a photographer? What was your big break into the industry?
There was no “big break”. I just worked bloody hard and did the jobs that other people were too lazy to do. I said “yes” to everything. I bit off more than I could chew and then chewed like crazy.
What interests you most about photography? What do you find most rewarding about photography?
Most rewarding thing is the appreciation I receive from clients.
Why is your favourite photographer and why?
I don’t have one favourite but I like the simplicity of David Bailey’s work.
Where do you see the photographic industry in ten years time?
There will be very few really good professional photographers making a proper living from photography in ten years time. Since digital came into our industry, every second person is now calling themselves a photographer and setting up a little home business. And every other person can now take their own baby, kids, family photos. There will be very little call for proper professional photography.
What type of cameras and equipment do you use?
Nikon
If you could photograph anyone or anything from any time period who or what would it be and why?
I would go on tour with the Rolling Stones and document the tour. Why? because I love live music.
