Here we are, the end of 2023

Whoever chooses a path in the creative arts needs to be aware that there are always choices to be made - photography is no different. As a generalist in life this is something that has also been reflected in my photographic output; specialists tell me this is much to my detriment and indeed as they plough the deep furrows of their niches for the past 10 years I’ve skated between genres by taking commissions as a commercial photographer in segments as broad as portraiture, food and interiors whilst also developing a body of work as a fine art photographer selling prints - either via galleries or as private sales. As we come to the close of 2023 I’ve taken a decision to focus my attentions on the creation of prints, which is something that is reflected in the reorganisation of this website.

I’m pleased to be able to offer prints such as this one of Mount Kazbeg under a Full Moon which represents a highlight of my work late this year. This was taken after an annual party held by my good friends at Georgia Adventure Club who use photos I’ve created to promote their tours - if you’re looking for safe and responsible guides to show you the amazing places Georgia has to offer then these are your people - please tell them I sent you.

At the same time I’m also free to sell compositions like “Tulips” as an affordable piece to brighten up your living space - I’ve had this on my wall a few years and I never get tired of seeing the beautiful textures of the leaves and petals; believe it or not this was taken as a test-shot whilst setting up a food shoot and yes, it’s absolutely only natural light.

If you prefer something more low key then this timeless shot of a V60 taken on Ilford Film on my old Hasselblad might be something you enjoy - this is another shot I’ve had on my walls a few years - I just love the beautiful grain and tonality of this film when shot through a classic Carl Zeiss lens.

Another print that might work well as a present for someone who loves Tbilisi could be “Blue Door” which is actually the door of a famous Tbilisi Restaurant taken in the depths of midwinter - which is why the skies are so clear and the blues so blue

As a contrast to the Blue Door there’s not much that’s as bursting with life as the scene of the Dry Bridge Antiques market which is pleasurably chaotic and overflowing with vibrant colours

Finally I’ll finish off this blog post with a photo of the city I’m from: London. I’m looking forward to shooting in London a lot more in the coming year so watch this space for updates - come to think of it, I’ve just remembered some beautiful photos I haven’t yet featured on this website so maybe I’ll go and dig those out now.
