Portraits

Creating interesting images of people is a challenging and rewarding genre of photography. Whilst many portraits are shot in an artificial environment such as a studio, most of mine have evolved from the world around us.
This demands a keen eye, sense of spontaneity and the ability to use available light at whatever time of day a subject reveals him or herself to me. It also requires an innate ability to successfully interact with the people I am pointing a camera at.
Much of my subject material has been inspired whilst travelling, so there is a strong ethnic and cultural influence that is evidenced in my portfolio. I fondly refer to this as my photographs of “people of the world”.
There is also a prevalence of images of children- behaving naturally, posing or sometimes in response to my presence as a foreigner- in their own individual environments.
I really enjoy the limitless potential in creating portraits, and have selected a mixture of some of my best color and black and white images in this catalogue to reflect that interest and showcase my ability to evoke an emotional response.
