I am a photographer and educator based in Hampshire, on the south coast of the
United Kingdom with some 30 years experience combining photographic assignments
with lecturing in Media and the Visual Arts. In addition to undertaking a range
of professional photographic assignments for corporate and individual clients, I
have been engaged by a number of colleges, education centres and other learning
establishments in both the public and private sectors, working primarily with
post 16 and adult learners. I have accumulated an extensive knowledge of
photographic techniques and technologies along with additional specialist skills
in new media such as video/moving image production, desk top publishing,
graphics and design for the web. As a photographer I believe it is extremely
important to sustain personal development, to continually extend my knowledge
and refine my skills. I have always maintained a commitment to independent
creative practice through self directed projects, a number of which have been
exhibited in galleries across the UK. As a fully qualified teacher I am highly
motivated to share my knowledge and enthusiasm for the visual arts and I fully
subscribe to the ethos of lifelong learning.”
